[QUOTE="mmmagnetic, post: 108505, member: 558"] I loved the screen of the iPad 3, but it was too big and heavy for me. Sold it, got the Mini. Loved everything about it, except the crummy screen. Now they combined my favourite features into one perfect little machine. And I agree, the A7 in the Mini was a big surprise, I would have assumed they´d take a weaker CPU to keep the price down. As it is, I´ll gladly pay more for the same power as the big iPad, because that makes it more future-proof. The Mini was never about price for me, but about weight and size. Making it just as powerful as the big model really excites me. I use my iPad for many hours each day, that´s mostly because I otherwise have a desktop machine (Mac Mini), so I do most of my browsing, mail-checking and video watching on my Mini, pretty much as a laptop replacement. And TPA, of course! And I don´t regret getting the old Mini one bit, either, because of the heavy usage it got in the last year. Good thing Apple products keep their resale value so well (especially since I always take very good care of them), that´s something that kinda offsets the higher prices compared to something like the Nexus 7 to me. Finally I´ll be able to read inserts in TPA again ;) Pro Pinball Timeshock is going to look glorious as well! On a sidenote, I wonder how TPA will evolve with these spec bumps. Hopefully Farsight can implement better light effects on iOS in the near future :cool: [/QUOTE]
