...so Apple is going to choke off sales about 6 months before they refurbish the product because... they are sick of making money? These analysts sound real smart.
I think the point is this might indicate new iPad's sooner, IMO they will announce then in June for immediate sale.
Do you actually use or plan on using one? Just asking since I also feel the urge to complain about the Mac Pro not coming out even though I'm set on keeping my 2008 one for a long time
I'm still using a 2006 model with lots of memory and newer graphic card and it's just now barely showing its age. My wife's new iMac can ever so slightly outperform it. I'm ready for a new one in about six months I suppose.
Why did you buy the mini in the first place? The things you mention can both be found out by just strolling into a shop and testing the thing and asking some questions to the staff..
Ummm ... new range of notebooks, new Mac Mini and re-designed iMacs. Not a bad year when nearly the whole line-up is refreshed in a year.
third OR fourth quarter? lol how vague. So basically he's specualting there could be a new mini sometime this year.
I think their 'news' will reduce about 50k ipad mini sales... Look look...now I'm an analyst
The difference, of course, is that you are analyzing your fantasies, while the pros analyze the facts.
Other than that, yeah!
If the current mini suits your needs, get it now. If not, wait.
That screen quality does not serve my needs, so I'm waiting until the new mini is released. If it does not have a retina display, I'm getting the full-HD Nexus 7.7.
I'll wait for a Mini retina or wait for a small case of iPad 9.7" without that huge borders.
Buying a iOS without retina is out of the question.

God I hope not. I hope Apple is moving toward a fully retina product line. I hate the fact that they still have older screens. It would probably help out developers too, although I'm sure a lot of them are already moving toward not even supporting the older screens.
Yes, and they came out with a lot less iPads, iPad minis and iPhones a year when they were a computer company.
Thanks, But No Thanks
If Rene Ritchie is correct with his prediction of no Retna Display in the next iPad Mini, I'll defiantly pass! What compelling upgrade can they make to the Mini? Maybe a speed bump in the processor, or maybe some added ram? Thanks but no thanks, to me that is not compelling at all!!
