So they're releasing another slow product? The iPhone 5 is already out dated...

And didn't Apple once say they're not going to ever release a smaller tablet?

Did. Then they realized there's a market for those who don't want to spend $500+ on 10" ones.

Even 1080p at 13.3" on my Zenbook Prime is small at 100% scaling... and if the current 15" Retina display is any indicator, the screen is on par with the Zenbook Prime 1080p screens and below the Sony Vaio Z 1080p screens in terms of color reproduction. So basically, the "many" people who would find the sharpness beneficial would be the people who claim they can see a difference in sharpness between 1080p and 1600p on a 13" screen... Btw, I've seen a Retina display in person and it's not noticeably sharper than say a Zenbook Prime or Vaio Z screen. and I have 20/20/15 eyesight ^_^

I'm one of the [probably few] people that can use the 15" MBPR at native resolution comfortably. But even I'm not sure how much smaller I can go before starting to get strained. Even the 5% or so increase in PPI on this theoretical 13" model may be too much.

I can appreciate that everyone has their own opinion and this is mine:

iPad mini is unnecessary for the consumers (or maybe just me, I can't speak for everyone else). iPad for something big, iPhone/iPod touch for something small. An iPad mini is still to large for someone's pocket but too small to do any serious work on.

However Apple probably need this in order to compete with the Nexus. I don't see why people here are getting excited over it. Unless it applies to the niche who want something Nexus sized but with iOS.
