16GB mini. It's my first iPad, and the price tag needed to be low. I love it though. I still have 9GB free, but i know it's going to go quicker than I'd like it to. If the 2nd gen appeals to me I'll sell the 16 and get a 32. The battery life on the 2nd gen needs to be at least as good as this one though. And 1GB of RAM would be nice.
