As already stated in earlier posts that you failed to read or understand, the fact that I can't see a noticeable difference in the screens is important to my buying decision, not yours or anyone else's. That's what.Okay, great, YOU can't tell that there's a difference. And you've already admitted that the fact that you not being able to tell the difference DOESN'T preclude there being one (which there most certainly is). So, what?
Your assumptions and claims have been proven false by other posts, and by history itself, so there's no point in repeating what others obviously already know. The fact remains that neither you nor I nor anyone outside of Apple have any reliable way of knowing with certainty what Apple will and won't do with regard to the iPad mini's future. The difference is, I'm sensible enough to admit that. I never claimed that Apple would or would not discontinue the mini. I simply have accurately refuted the assumption that the iPad mini has already been replaced by a successor model. It has not. Until the iPad mini is officially discontinued by Apple, no one can claim with certainty what the future iPad model line-up will be, or whether it will or won't include an iPad mini form factor.
