is it worth it?
Is it worth it buying an Ipad mini? I have used a kindle fire ever since they came out. I got it for Christmas at the time and have not been impressed at all since then. In the first year I had 3 replacements and knew someone with 9 replacements. Now it has been past my 1 year warranty and my 3rd replacement is breaking too, but amazon won't replace it now that the warranty is up. I also use a ipod 4th generation. I saved up $200 after a few years of cutting grass to get an ipod and bought the ipod ive been wanting. The 4 gen was the new one so I got it. The first night I had it, I was already not impressed. It says in the description it holds 10+ hours of battery. I got 3 hours IF I was lucky. I returned it thinking it was a flawed one. The replacement had the same problem but also crashed frequently. I returned it but they said I couldn't get my money back, only replace it. I thought this was really stupid but I had either 2 choices; replace it, or waste the $200 I spent years saving up for a device called an ipod that I always heard great things about and loved as soon as I tried a friend's. The third replacement had the same issues. I put up with them; the frequent charges, crashes, apps not downloading. The only thing good was that I could listen to my favorite music anywhere, anytime. But now, a year later, I am sick of putting up with an ipod that doesn't work. Now that I turned 16 and finally on Tuesday was able to take my driving test and passed, I would like to try and get a job, and get something better. I got an email a month or so back from Apple about their new Ipad mini. The full size ipad is too expensive but works wonderful when I tried one out. So I was wondering, is an ipad mini good, and worth the price? Thanks in advance

EDIT: yay now it's completely broken ( -_- ) so those of you who know me I won't be on pl for a while probably. Unless i can finally get used to playing on a computer. I looked at reviews for the iPod 4 gen and turns out I wasted $200 and its not just me with problems; they discontinued the 4 gen. No one sells it anywhere now. Makes me kind of pissed now my kindle fire has no screen display other than these crazy lines (I'll try to get a pic, it's weird) and my iPod I can use for the forums but pl crashes. So in game I'm gone for a while but forums I'm still here (for now unless the iPod breaks completely too).
It has just impressed me, and I'm so glad I got it. I'm sure that its just luck, but I have dropped this thing from about 4ft off the ground at least 3 times, (Clumsy me) and twice on its screen, and it hasn't broken yet xD Once again that <-- may be just luck, but it might just be made nice o.o If you have any questions other than just in general is it nice, I'll answer them. Other people may suggest other things, but all I'm saying is that I've been in your shoes, and you shouldn't be disappointed with the iPad Mini.

it's got a shoddy 1024x768 resolution, an outdated A5 processor, and a new one is weeks away from unveil. Really, you couldn't wish you purchase the ipad mini 1 at a worse time.
