So I already have a 4S, an iPad 2 and a i7 windows laptop connected to two external monitors. Now that the iPad Mini exists I'm thinking what's going to be my two new toys in the future.

Specs aside I would like to know your opinion which combination of gadgets would you get when you are not on your desktop or going out:
- 13" Macbook Air and iPad Mini
- 11" Macbook Air and iPad

I was thinking the 1st option since there are times that iOS is quite limited so the Macbook Air with 7 hrs battery life can help me out.
 
Since my laptop is my only computer, I prefer a moderately powerful machine. I have a 15" MBP along with an iPad 3rd gen. For me the 13" screen is just a tad too small. The 15 offers a nice balance between size/weight and portability. The 11" isn't much larger than an iPad.

If you prefer the air, I'd suggest a 13" along with an iPad of the desired size.
