I still think the Kindle Fire will hold a nice chuck of market share when/if the ipad "mini" comes out.

I currently have an iPad 3rd. Gen, and also a Nexus 7. I have no use for the iPad mini, I do like the smaller form factor though. I find myself bringing my Nexus 7 everywhere I go, and using it much more than my iPad. |

Can't you just Bridge the iPad to your iPhone and share the Internet connection? |

No, but I am impatiently waiting for an updated 27" iMac. I don't even care about a retina display, just put a better processor and graphics card in the thing. |

Or jailbreak it...or does AT&T still crack down on unauthorized mobile hotspot usage? |

I have a third gen iPad already as well as two HP Touchpad units (16GB and 32GB) running Android and WebOS respectively. So I guess my answer would be no. Although I could sell the HP tablets and maybe buy the mini. There would have to be some advantage for doing so though,… |

kudos:1 | Well, I mean an advantage with respect to hardware configuration and price. For example I bought the new iPad which was basically an entry level unit (16GB / WiFi only). If the mini had a significantly lower price for more storage and or cellular connectivity it would be more attractive. If it were just a slightly smaller version with a slightly lower price then I wouldn’t see the point. |

Personally, I'd rather have a larger (wider) iPhone screen. Odd timing considering that Samsung just announced the mini Galaxy S3 that is the size of the iPhone 5.
I think Apple may just be chasing lower price points at this time. I worry about that as they seem to be trending to sacrificing quality. Some of the inferior displays offered on some of the macbook airs area a good example. TN panels should be illegal and a worldwide ban needs to be established. TN panels are heinous garbage. |

No. I'm more interested in the hybrid ultrabooks. You can remove the screen and use it as a tablet or you can dock it and use it as a laptop. It's not that much more expensive and it can run full windows.
Normal tablets seems so incompetent ever since i watched the announcements for the touchscreen laptops. Ipad and nexus are mobile OS that are very restrictive.
I also like the laptops where you can flip the keyboard around and use it as a base for a tablet.
Use the laptop and convert it to a tablet when you need. It beats having 2 different devices. One for fun and one for productivity.

kudos:1 | I would like to see Apple do something like this as well. I would like to be able to dock the iPad with an Apple keyboard doc which has an additional battery, USB port, card reader and so on.
I’d even go one step further to say that I would like a Mac Book Air like keyboard doc that runs OS X on an iPad screen when docked together. When separated the iPad can go back to iOS. Software would let you remote into the Mac Book Air like keyboard dock when not connected.
I’d also like to be able to dock an iPad with a Mac Mini and use the iPad as a display for the mini. |
