onthebottom is rather quiet. He hasn't done something drastic because of the apple fall I hope. Possibly bought in a $700 with expectations of $1000.00 by now.

Did they break down the sales of the ipads? Just curious if the rumours were true that the ipad mini was cannibalizing sales of the regular ipad.

Do you think so? Wow...maybe the next iphone will be even TALLER!

I don't agree about the battery life as I've never had to recharge before the end of the day using my surface. Very similar to my Ipad2 experience.

I'm just curious as to how many people have actually replaced their computer with an Ipad. I do not know a single person who has stopped using their laptop and in its place used an Ipad. Everyone I know with an ipad still brings a laptop along when it is time to get some work done. I have not...

I checked out the "new iPad" at the future shop the other day and although I did see a difference it was not enough to justify an upgrade from version 2 (I could see it if i had version 1). At the same time I drool at the prospect of having something like this...
