This is what I need to do. Way to many DVD's cluttering up the place.

The iPad mini...I don't know. I'm not sure its a better product than the Nexus hardware wise, but for $130 more... Eeek. The big advantage are the apps.

But the new iMac. Love it. Want it.

Looking forward to what Microsoft and Google come up with at the end of the month.

ROFL So the selling point of the ipad mini is that it's small, yet they're marketing how much bigger it is than the Nexus?

When it comes to Apple people are more deranged than politics or religion.

Has Apple lost it's damn mind?

Why release a 7" tablet that has a worse display than every other device you sell AND is even worse than the competition who are selling theirs for over $100 less???

When Google drops it's prices next week (very likely) the iPad Mini will look even dumber.

Yea, kinda thinking the same thing. But then again, alot of consumers have shown they are more than willing to overpay for all things "Apple" and the Apple name.

Well, that should kill their iPod Touch sales being the mini is only $30 more.

Except that the mini has a crap display compared to the touch (which is massively over priced as well)

And my HP Touchpad running ICS is still better.

Apple could stamp their logo into the side of a dog turd and sell it to the iFaithful for $399.

That's showing the difference in how much of the actual web page is displayed on each device.

So in a way, yes.
