I dont think iPad Air will "feel" same weight as iPad Mini. 460+g vs 330+ (Ipad mini). There is like 130g different.. For your info, iPhone 5S weight 112g.

Does it mean that ipad2 is still available at apple store? I thought it has been replaced by ipad3 long time ago.


QUOTE(Atomars @ Nov 1 2013, 08:30 PM)
iPad Air will replace iPad 4, just like how the iPad 4 replaced the iPad 3.

If you look at the US Apple Online Store, there is no more iPad 4, only iPad 2, iPad mini, iPad mini with Retina Display and iPad Air are available.

My own adventure lining up in Apple Store Tokyo Ginza.

user posted image
Was number 300+ around the time I got at the end of the line.

user posted image
Apple staff rolling what I thought initially was breakfast. But it was a cart with boxes with card slip dictting what config of iPad Air you wanted. Plus free mineral water. tongue.gif

user posted image
This was what I initially wanted. Later I asked for the WiFi model since getting the Cellular model requires signing up data contract with AU, NTT DoCoMo or Softbank.

Apple Store Ginza has 4 floors. Ground floor and 4th floors for purchase, activation and product setup. I had a nice chat with Matsushige who is fluent in English, while he sets up another guy's iPad Air speaking to him in Nippon. After that, I settled down to the 3rd floor where they have this lovely auditorium with velvet seats where you get free one-to-one and product tutoring on how to make full use of your new iPad Air. This is only Apple Store I've been with such facility like auditorium open to public.

My Space Grey iPad Air. I had to rush back to the hotel in Narita airport to fly my plane to Los Angeles.
