Hi
I being offered an upgrade from my ipad data provider.
My ipad has taken over from my laptop as my main computing device and I wondered what thoughts were of the ipad mini?
My main problem with the ipad 3 is the weight and size. I find it far to uncomfortable to read books etc whilst holding it I my hand, it has to be used on a table on its stand. It's also not as portable as I'd like, if I go out and need to take it with I need to take a bag for it as its not really pocket sized (obviously though still far more portable and convenient than a laptop).
A mini may solve that as they Certainly look much lighter and more portable, but do people think its worth upgrading to? As far as I can see the only downside is the lack of retina display. I do like the ipad3 screen but don't see that much difference to the original ipad screen and wouldn't say I have the best eyesight in the world anyway.
Do people have a problem with the screen? And also is the oval screen size noticeably smaller when it comes to websites etc? As I say, I do most of my computing on the ipad now, I hardly ever open safari on my mac any more but think this is only possible because of the large ipad screen. I find websites by hard to use on my iphone5 as the screen is too small for may sites. Do ipad mini users find websites any different/harder to view than they did with the full size ipad?
Thanks for your help.
