Absolutely. I've had my iPad 3 for almost two years, and it's my traveling companion. I've been flying about every six weeks for this new job, and the iPad is awesome. I load it up on TV shows from my Tivo to watch on long flights, and at night at the hotel. If there's airport wifi, I can read my RSS feed and catch up on Facebook and HTF.Clinton McClure said:Finally getting around to posting an update on my iPad Mini Retina experience. It's been almost a month and it's still an awesome machine. I found it much handier to use than my iPhone while waiting at the airport for my flight this past Monday. I find I'm also reading and surfing quite a bit on it when I get back to the hotel from class every afternoon and in the morning while I'm waiting on the hotel shuttle to ferry us from the hotel to class. It will REALLY come in handy in about 3 weeks when I have a flight from Little Rock to Connecticut with a multi-hour layover in Chicago.
We'll see. I for one want nothing to do with Multitasking on iOS as it is currently implemented on either Android or Windows. Snapping oddly shaped widgets? No thanks.Multitasking is sorely needed. I used to think, who needs to multitask on iOS, when all I used it for was my phone. Last night I'm watching Kings v. Blackhawks on my iPad using the NBC Sports app and my friends are all iMessaging me when the Kings go on their barrage (Go Kings Go!). Of course I couldn't iMessage them back without kicking out of the app and having to restart the stream (and watch the start-up commercials) so I have to get my phone out to do that.
