Reference or casual/fiction reading?

I ask because I found the standard sized Ipad to be slightly heavy for bedtime and commute reading, whereas the small Ipad (no retina) was more pleasant experience.

I would really love a Retina quality smaller sized Ipad as long as it maintains battery life quality but considering just going Kindle for day to day and full sized Ipad as textbook / video replacement.

You would think the quality of the product already would accommodate a remote scenario, it's a really worthwhile addition even for casual consumers who do not actively participate in discussion.

Unless you are an offspring or his partner I don't understand how can you say that, much less quantify it.

(Your platitude serves as much purpose as this comment, but come on, pg is not a 'god' and this casual idol worship is a bit silly.)
