I noticed that the newest regular iPad was on sale for $399 (down from the $429 price) for the Space Grey, 128G Wi-Fi model on Amazon. Also, Amazon is running a $50 off promotion for Amex cardholders. Boom - I finally have my “Tablet Mode” iPad after considering this since I have owned the 12.9” iPad Pro models. I think this iPad will last me a few years and will be good for newspaper reading, podcasts, occasional movies, maybe even video calls in portrait mode. Also, during travel, I can pair it with a MacBook (other times, I will travel just with the iPad Pro w Magic Keyboard). Really looking forward to getting this value iPad in hand on Sunday or Monday...

Enjoy. It's a pretty great tablet. Certainly leagues better than el cheapo Amazon Fires (except for Fire AR being better suited for video watching). :p
