It is most definitely not doing poorly. They are sold out online, and many stores are also sold out. In the first three days, they sold three million iPads -- including the iPad 4, iPad 2, and iPad mini. I loved my iPad 3 but I love the mini much more. It's quite large, but so much lighter. I'm not sure I could go back.

How many android apps support 2560 x 1600 natively? or is that feature just "skin deep"?

Does Ipad 3 have a lot of Apps that support it's own native res as well?

I'm no expert on Android but as far as I know all apps should scale to that resolution, but the graphics they may use are probably lower resolution, so games and graphics may not look as sharp unless they're updated with higher resolution graphics.

Yes the iPad 3 does have quite a few that support its native resolution, though with games, some of them settle at the halfway point between 1024x768 and 2048x1536 because the SGX543MP4 is only twice as powerful as the MP2 in the iPad 2. The iPad 4 shouldn't really have that problem.

So they just scale (blow them up) and no native support for the Nex 10 screens?

I keep hearing on reviews that Androids just have those low res cellphone apps blown up and they don't look great.

So how's ipad different?

The apps automatically fit to the resolution (not stretch) but the graphics may be blown up if they aren't a sufficient size, which is quite possible at such a high resolution.

It's different because iPhone apps don't run as anything but phone apps on the iPad, which encourages developers to make tablet specific apps, either separately or via an update, unless they want their app to look bad on the iPad.

Android separates it's resources by DPI, not by resolution. With a DPI of 300 it fits into the XHDPI category, and apps will use the same resources as the Nexus 4. No need to maintain two separate apps. The developer simply needs to shuffle the view fragments around in XML to create the tablet UI. With the custom rom I have on my Galaxy Nexus I can even switch between phone, 7" and 10" layouts on the fly.

The iPad mini is doing very poorly, with the iPad outselling the iPad mini at a ratio of 4000:1.

In my opinion reasons why iPAD mini is doing less stellar than its larger counterparts is more related to its subpar hardware - screen in particular - when compared against the devices price than its size. I mean even 120 eur 7'' china tablets can afford a 1280x800 IPS and Apple users in particular seem to be sensitive towards pixel density - I guess its hard to go "down" once you get used to ~300 ppi.

The iPad mini has a higher pixel density than the iPad 2 and it sold quite well. I've seen nothing yet to suggest the mini isn't selling well, yet alone being outsold by 4000:1.
