I personally think it's interesting that what would otherwise be a STUNNING sales feat (for just about any other company) is greeted as merely okay or downturnish.
IMO, it would be hard for me to think of any company that would not consider this a successful launch.
Sure there's talk of cannibalizing of larger iPad sales but for me the larger iPad was not that interesting due to having to carry a laptop AND a tablet is painfully heavy (it adds up). I was debating waiting for a Mini with a Retina display but decided early Friday morning to just pick one up.
This is my first ever iOS device and in the days since last Friday, it's been fun to use, is the right form factor for my use cases and frankly, I'm happy with my decision. YMMV.
Now, my next most pressing problem is to find a case for it... Suggestions anyone?
