I am reminded of this quote: “The iPad is the clearest expression of our vision of the future of personal computing.” — Tim Cook
Clearest, not clear. Expression, not definition. Vision, not tangible. Future, not knowable.

 @edc128e6 I agree with you about the iPad Mini. I use it almost constantly, unless I’m doing a heavyweight task on my desktop Mac. The iPhone is too much like computing through a letterbox, the full-size iPad is too big and clumsy.
