The iPod Shuffle comes to mind. :-)
OK, but I think the iPod example doesn't translate to this market. Remember that the Shuffle came into being as the first flash-based iPod, made very tiny for people who wanted to go running, cycling, or walking. I don't see how a smaller iPad really addresses a great need, especially if it is as dumbed down as the Kindle is. The Kindle is for people who only want to consume Amazon content, and to surf the web a little. It doesn't provide anywhere near the varied experience possible on an iPad.
