And if you go for one of Apple's refurbished iPad Minis, the intorductory prices start at $209.95 and $250.00 for last year's model. I'm sure that if you look hard enough, you'll find a cheaper deal, but for something directly from Apple and the one year Apple Care, that's a very solid deal. In fact, the most exciting thing out of yesterday's event is probably the reduced pricing on the older devices.
I'd been waiting to see if a new Apple TV was going to be introduced, but since that didn't happne and most likely won't for a while now, I think I'll just go grab myself a refurb model from Apple for $75.00. Again, a very nice deal when you take everything into consideration. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Friday, October 17, 2014 10:57 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: ipad mini 2 questions The $249 iPad Mini is the first generation in a 16 Gb version. I don't know why anybody would not spend $50 more and buy an iPad Mini Retina or, I guess now it's the iPad Mini 2, because it has the A7 64 bit processor as well as a Retina screen. This may not be important for you, but if you ever were to sell it that would probably get you your $50 back. Of course \I think it's even better to save up a bit longer and spend $399 for a 64 Gig iPad Mini 2. At least then you won't regret not getting more storage space and with apps getting bigger 16 Gb is not that much as it only leaves you around 12 Gb. If you wanted to use the Alex voice you could not do so on the original iPad Mini, but you can on the iPad Mini 2. Of course Alex by itself is almost 1 Gb.
