    This is my first foray with Apple. I have been a die-hard Andriod person for years. I decided to give the iPad mini a try, and I am happy. I mostly use it for reading and a few games, but primarily bought it for telemedicine. I have only used it once for that, but I am glad I had it available. I also look forward to trying out Facetime with my daughter who lives 1200 miles away.

    Bought previous gen ipad; was a fun toy to look at, but not much in the way of productivity. This new gen iPad is fantastic for business. The handwriting feature is smooth and fast; no lag. Using OneNote for note-taking and now my notebooks are searchable, backed up to the cloud, and available to me on other devices. Also using it for the SPARK guitar amplifier application - the speed is a real benefit. It has the A12 chip; bet the newer version is even better.
