iPad mini Keep iPad Mini?

So I went to Sam's and picked up a black 32gb mini for $334. Basically $95 off.

I know new models will probably be released soon, so should I keep? I have a feeling the new iPad Mini 2 32gb will be close to $500 to compensate for the retina screen.

Based on what you've already accomplished (savings), wait for the weekend before the mini 3 comes out and visit SAMs again. 😉

Do you mean mini 2?

 

[Hello...]

Do you mean mini 2?

No he means mini 3

It's also a little sarcasm since only you can answer that question. The Mini is a perfectly capable device as of right now. The Mini 2 coming out isn't going to drastically change the usability of what you have right now. That said, unless you need 32GB, it would probably be wiser to wait right now. I know I don't have the patience, but still.

Yeah I know... It is a fine device. I do use slightly more than 16gbs so the 32 is a good spot. Just looking at the costs and we know Apple likes good profit I am thinking the ipad mini 2 with 32 gbs is going to be close to $500 which is more than I want to pay.

Well Sam's has a 30 day return policy so I can see what Apple does over the next couple of weeks.

Keep that receipt!

It's up to you. You will have to return it before being able to see the next iPad Mini. It is going to be announced late October. More than 30 days from now.

If you want a Retina screen really bad, then return it. If you're using your iPad right now, and are perfectly content. Then keep it, you'll be just fine.
