Thought I'd start a thread, i have a feeling it might not be too lively.
Well, I can't believe I did it, but I got the mini iPad this morning. I really didnt need it, so it was nuts. I could see the lines for them weren't too big. I went to my local Apple Store which is in a Mall in the mid peninsula of the SF Bay Area verses the shiney big new Apple Store in Palo Alto and got there at 8:00am. There was a line of about a dozen people. As I got in line, they let people in and I got a card from the Apple Genius of the model I wanted, went in, got the iPad and left in 10 minutes. That was fast and painless.
I got the white model because I wanted the silver colored back. Plus my iPads are black. I'm not typing on it now, I'll set it up shortly. I did get a chance to play with one when I went into the store for a minute. It wasn't bad for the size.
One of the reasons I wanted to get one was to be able to use it as a sketch pad. So I look forward to trying it with the new Pogo stylus that is blue tooth enabled. This new stylus should be interesting to try on both the big and min iPads.
I'll look forward to try reading books on it too.
I'll post my reactions to it after I get it going. Anyone else get one?
