hi,
I wonder what a besel is? Is it the metal rem around the screen? I too
have thought about getting an iPad but, never could justify the cost
sincethe larger screen size and view would be of no intrest to a totaly
blind person. pluss the iPhone 6+ is fairly large now. I wonder those
that have it is it the superior sound quality you all buy it for?

I have a very hard time believing that Apple will offer a 10.5 and 9.7 inch
iPad, what would be the differentiator between two devices with just over a
three quarter of an inch larger screen?
If they do the 9.7 inch model will be around as a less expensive option with
slightly older technology for a year or two and then it will go away. I
could, however, see them making a 10.5 inch screen iPad with a similar form
factor and less screen besel and then to offer a smaller version iPad be it
7.9 as the Mini is now or maybe 8.2 or 8.5 inches, once again, smaller besel
sizes could probably accommodate an 8.5 inch screen in a very similar size
device to what the iPad Mini is now.
Regards,
Sieghard

I've seen that rumor. The other rumor is that the 10.5 inch iPad will have
the same form factor as the 9.7, except that it will have almost no besel,
thus enabling them to fit the larger screen into the same size case so to
speak. I guess we'll all just wait and see. It would be too bad if the mini
were to go away. Maybe they figure the iPhone 7+ size does the job, except
it's way more expensive than the mini.

rumor is there will be no iPad mini refresh. Instead, they will launch 3
sizes of the iPad pro. 12.9, 10.5, and 9.7. This is just a rumor, but
comes from a reliable source.

Well, yes, you can definitely run iPhone apps on an iPad mini. Do you
have some sight? I'm asking because if you don't, I don't see picture in
picture being valuable for you. As for the split screen, according to the
reviews I have seen, it's not all that great on the mini, due to the fact
that the mini is already rather small. Of course those were sighted folks
writing those reviews. I have a mini, it's an older one. And I never use
split screen. I see no value in it for me. Hopefully others who do use it
will have something different to say. The other caution flag I would put
up about the iPad mini for is that it is running a chip which is two
years old. No big deal? Not now. But I wonder about the longevity of the
device, since it's Chip is that old. Rumor is, new iPads are coming out
next spring, but the question is, will the mini get a refresh?

i'm having trouble justifying the purchase of an iPad Mini 4. I'm very
intrigued by the iPad-specific features, such as having two apps on the
screen at a time with the split screen feature, and the picture in
picture feature. I just love the idea of the keyboard case, too.
Does every app support the split screen feature, where you can have two
apps running side by side? How will I know if an app does or doesn't
support this feature? Also, can I use iPhone apps on an iPad Mini? I
know there are iPad-specific apps out there, but will iPhone ones run on
it, too?
I picked the iPad Mini over the iPad Air 2 because I've had a play a few
times with my mom's iPad, and I found it a bit confusing. I got lost on
the screen a lot, and had a bit of a hard time finding iCons. I think a
Mini would be a bit easier to get used to, not to mention a bit more
portable.
Thanks,
Ari
