Apple airs iPad mini ad 'Piano'

To coincided with the launch of the iPad mini, Apple has started airing a new television ad called "Piano" that focuses on this new device. The ad actually begins with an iPad 4 running GarageBand and a hand comes in to play the intro to the popular piano duet Heart and Soul. When it's time for the second pianist would join the song, an iPad mini slides in and a hand begins to play the melody of the song. As the song is played, the camera slowly pans and zooms into the iPad mini so that it's the only featured device. There is no voiceover for this ad, just music being played by iPads.

iPad mini is here, and some thoughts on non-Retina

Apple has begun selling the iPad 4 and iPad mini around the world, and while crowds have been much, much smaller than iPhone launches, which stands to reason, they've also been smaller than previous iPad launches. This is Apple's second full-size iPad launch of the year, however, and pre-orders have taken a lot of wind out of in-store, launch day crowds.

I love the posts, products, and contests. But, I have never been able to enter a single contest, just links, loops, eventually to nothing at all. Anyone else have this problem?

I like being able to hold the mini in one hand comfortably. It's better in bed for late night browsing, nothing sketchy, just catching up on the news when I can't fall asleep :)

iRepairNational says:

We have been getting a lot of questions about iPad mini durability and screen repair feasibility lately here at iRepairNational. We have been posting our finding on some of the major discussion and blog sites and iMore.com made the cut. It turns out we have good and bad news.
~The bad news is that the mini is as fragile as its big brothers, despite being lighter. Why you ask? Well, all previous versions of iPad have a had a thin plastic or rubber trim that fit between the aluminum frame and the glass. This allowed the iPad to absorb small dents and dings before the aluminum put too much pressure on the fragile glass (yes, despite the hype all of Apple's products still use crack-prone glass). The iPad Mini Glass fits right up to the beveled aluminum edge, and if that edge gets dented in it immediately puts a lot of pressure on the glassing causing it to crack.
~ The good news is that the glass can be replaced for much less than purchasing a replacement or even one of Apple's refurbished units. There are a few challenges to the repair, primarily in that this is the first ever Apple mobile device to require soldering when replacing a cracked or shattered screen. The glass/touchscreen itself has cable that is soldered to a touchscreen controller board, and than a cable from the home button also solders on to the digitizer cable.
