Sell my ipad 3 verizon 4. But only if the 7 has two cameras.
 
Will stick with my iPad. Current screen size to me is the ideal for a tablet. 7" would be too small...
 
Wil want to add it to my collection but my husband won't be pleased.
 
I'm getting nexus for a 7 inch tab, but I dunno, it's out of cycle to release another iPad this year, would make sense to release next year.
 
I personally can't wait. The mini will not replace ANYTHING in my house but rather be a nice addition to our iPad, MacBook pro and iPhones. My wife wants a Kindle Fire but has decided that if the mini does materialize that that will be her new device. That is the market it is aimed at and THAT is the market it will dominate.
 
+1. I had a 7" tablet. The screen is too small IMO.

I have a Playbook and I find the aspect ratio really awkward with the current 7" tablets. It's too narrow and tall in portrait and too wide in landscape. Also I personally feel the bezel is just too much in 7" device that are meant to be operated much with just one hand. Kindle's 6" display is much better in practicality as it's about as wide as 7" tablets but with less bezel and height.

If Apple can keep the width of the device to the minimum and keep the weight in check, a 7.85" iPad could fill out the niche very nicely.

Completely agree. Especially with all the apps and other content I already have for the current iPad and iPhone, it's really a no brainer. Finally I'll get to use iPad even when my kid isn't asleep!
