I really like my ipad minis form factor and weight. I do think the 7.9 inch size is better for most things compared to the 10 inch iPads, however I do like the bigger form factor for things like comic reading and movies.
However, I'm really jealous of the retina display and performance of the ipad 4. While the ipad mini screen isn't terrible, it really isn't up to par with today's standards I think. And with talks that getting a retina into the mini is such a hard thing to do and possibly at least a year off, I'm really debating if I should have gotten a ipad 4 or upgrade to a ipad 5 when that hits.
Do you guys have laments about not going wi the retina display on the ipad 4? Does the smaller size of the mini make up for its screen quality and slightly less performance?
