Trying to decide if I should buy the iPad mini or the iPad 2. My only concern is that the iPad mini is too small, what is everyones opinion?
Buy one and try it; if you don't like it return it.

Pocket sizes must be different up here in the great white north, 'cause my ipad mini fits in my inside jacket pockets just fine. Fits in my jeans back pocket also, although I don't carry it around much like that as its a bit uncomfortable.
Even with a case, the mini fits in my pocket, although a bit tighter squeeze.
Just not sure why so many people claim it doesn't fit. I even had a sale guy at radio shack try to tell me the mini doesn't fit in jackets at the same time as i was reaching in to my own pocket and digging out my mini.....talk about egg on the face!

Y'all must have some big-ass pockets (pun intended) up there because my friend's Mini only just fits in my slacks front pocket. It would nbever fit in my jeans front or back pockets.
Jackets vary, for example it would fit in some of my jackets but not all of them, but even that is not a year round solution as its too hot to wear a jacket in the summer down here.
There are lots of people who currently or previously owned a full sized iPad, me being one of them, and I think the mini is the most perfect size for my needs.
... My only concern is that the iPad mini is too small...
I prefer smaller form factors for Tablets and can't stand the large size of the iPad. The Mini is much better for me.
4.5" is not even remotely close to 7.9". I have both as well, huge difference...i personally think its a bit too small. and the resolution is too low as well
i got 4.5" phone, so getting an ipad almost same size, would be kinda silly
Is that because you're a Hobbit?
iPad mini is only 'better' if you carry it around alot. It is too expensive for what it is and wait for the next gen if poss.
Size wise, better than the 7" competition.
It's essentially an 8" screen so without actually handling it, it seems like a sweet spot for something smaller than the normal iPad.
But the next gen will be even more expensive?
