My only request is that Apple get the mini and the full size iPad on the same release cycle. Will be replacing my iPad 2 in the next few months and would like to see - all at once - what the new models of both sizes provide so that I can make an informed decision.
I do not think it will happen. I believe they will release the ipad 5 first and give folks something to ponder about waiting for a Mini 2. If they release a Mini 2 first with retina, I bet folks will not have much of a decision at all to make waiting for the ipad 5 especially if the new Mini is $329.
Your move, Apple. The OP is already stunned by the Mini.
