Despite Apple releasing the best quality iPad ever tomorrow,
all the interest and lines seem to be for the mini.

Will this pattern continue going forward?

So many people still fail to understand that the mini is designed to replace the iPad 2. That is the strategy. Apple isn't interested in competing with the Kindle and Android 7" tablet crowd. They want the iPad 2 segment to upgrade to a mini or a 4.

Yes. Of course the mini will outsell the biggie by far. For most people / uses the mini screen is perfectly good in size, so why would you lug around a big fat iPad?

How about a tablet phone that's in between iPhone 4 and iPad mini?
