Hey guys,

Recently bought an iPad mini and love it. My other iOS dev is an iPhone 4.

On the iPad, I can't find any of the "utilities", like weather app, stock app, compass, and so forth (the Clock app is there). This seems strange to me...

(Ipad Mini is with cellular if that makes a difference for, for example, the compass thing. Not that I really need a compass app, it's just strange.)

I can ask Siri for stock prices and weather, but since she is not always available - and it's not always suitable to talk to a gadget - I'd be surprised had they rmeoved them.

In case of iPads these weren't removed as they were never there to begin with.

Missing from the beginning and I don't understand why. Yes there are fee options but the ones that I have found have ads. I think it is strange that a calculator wasn't included. I assume like most people don't use enough to want to pay for something like that so I put up with ads when I use.

Very strange.
