iPad Mini?

I hope this isn't the beginning of Apple's downward spiral.

I can't imagine that this is something Steve Jobs came up with.
Of course, this is all just speculation for now.

I have been hoping they would make an iMac Touch... But that seems not to be part of their ethos for the moment.

I think the Mini iPad is a great idea! If all the rumours are true, I can't wait.

This is interesting.While I generally wouldn't be very interested in less screen real estate,if they had a significant price reduction (more than $50) it might be the thing that pushes me to get a second iPad.(something that I was itching to do when they announced the new one and reduced the price on the old one,but I decided to chill out and not be so impulsive)

I'd rather go the other way. I'm looking forward to the Windows 8 tablets, and hoping to get something bigger, similar to paper, such as 8"x11" or a bit larger.
