I just put out a new layout for www.ipadbackdrops.com - please let me know if you have any suggestions.
What are you into? Here's a cool thread...I was given a mini for christmas. Never had an Apple device before, and hadn't planned on getting a pad, but it seems pretty useful for social apps and some other things at least.
Any (free) apps people recommend?

It's free.Thanks! Downloaded a nice number of new apps from the list there.
A good use for this thing for me might be as a way to get into podcasts. Is Apple's podcast app really so bad as the panning in user reviews claim? I can't imagine it being so awful as to warrant hundreds of 1-stars.

Thinking about getting one of these now that im done with college... i kinda don't need a laptop anymore, and i have a desktop and iphone.
What do yall do with your ipads when away from wifi though? Just games?
Tether to phone! (I don't have a Mini, but when I got through my tablet phases that's what I do)
$20 more a month for tethering doesn't seem like a hot deal (no jb for iphone 5 :S)
What carrier? Are you still on the unlimited plan?
I'm looking for a sleeve for it. Something to protect it while I travel with it in my bag, but I don't want a case since I like going case-less.
I'll be buying an iPad mini later this month, so I just wanted to know how does syncing work when I also have an iPhone 5?
Like what I mean is, I don't want both devices syncing the same apps/media since I want them to have their own things (my education apps and some games on the mini and all the music and other stuff on my iPhone 5).
You can configure independent sync options for every ios you connect to itunes.

http://www.macrumors.com/2013/01/11/next-generation-ipad-and-ipad-mini-rumored-for-march-launch/Topeka Capital Markets analyst Brian White today released a new report highlighting some of his observations from this week's CES in Las Vegas, noting that "checks" at the show suggest that Apple is looking to launch the next-generation versions of the iPad and iPad mini in March.
"Our checks at CES indicate Apple will release the iPad 5 and the second-generation iPad mini this March. The iPad 5 is expected to be lighter and thinner than the iPad 4 that was released in October, while the form factor of the iPad mini should be similar to the first generation iPad Mini that debuted in October."
White's comments are in line with a previous report from Japanese blog Macotakara which claimed that a thinner and lighter fifth-generation iPad will be launching in March. RBC analyst Doug Freedman had also claimed that Apple was accelerating its plans for the second-generation iPad mini.
You don't have to upgrade.I would be rather anoyed if they push out a new mini already ... fuck apples new half year release circle

why would you be annoyed? because you can no longer show off that you have the latest apple tech? because I see no other reason as a new retina mini release doesn't change YOUR product in anyway
People say this a lot and I don't fully agree.
If you buy something that is soon replaced by something that is better at the same price it can be a bit disheartening. Similar to when the Nexus 7 doubled it's storage shortly after release; no, peoples' tablets didn't suddenly get crappier, but the value they got for their money did. This is usually all part of the game with electronics, but one year of usage is normally enough to make that value worth it.
If you take it to the extreme I seriously doubt you would have the same line of thought. What if, out of nowhere, Apple released a retina Mini one month after launch? You really think all of the launch buyers shouldn't feel bummed because hey, their tablet didn't suddenly change?
And I'm sure people will be mad because they can't run the streets showing off they have the latest Mini...yeah, that's the reason.
I felt similar when they replaced the iPad 3 relatively quickly. I got over it though and now know to wait for complete generational (as far as CPU/GPU tech goes) changes before I go in next. Though now I'm tabletless and am not really struggling without one.

Just bought a mini What are the must have apps in the iOS tablet world?
Thanks. Got both.Flipboard + Pocket are my favorites
Yeha this -- 5 month is just to quick. I would love a Retina mini but iam not going to sell my mini at a loss. When Jobs was arround they had this great 1 year life circle of iProducts which lead to happier customers and products with bigger technologic advancments to the products before. Now within 1 year we have a ipad4, ipad mini and ipad5 and mini retina incoming. Sorry but at this price ita bullshit. Exapecialöy with souch an important feature like retina
and dont give me this "show off" bullshit - thats not what this is about
I can't help but feel that the 4 was a misstep or a way to get to a Q3 / pre Xmas release for all tablets. Recent info points to all new tablets being Q3 2013 now.
