I believe it was Gruber who suggested the name "iPad Air", but considering that the iPod Mini was, I believe, the best-selling iPod model, using that moniker with the smaller iPad has strong history behind it.
Now if they just renamed the iPod Touch the "iPad Nano".![]()

... not really sure on it myself -- you might just run into something interesting ...
