Simply put I am for any product that Apple decides to make. They just eclipse their competition.

I remember thinking the 7-inch form factor was DOA as well.... but that was before the Retina display (and also before I did things like watch flix on my tiny iPhone while waiting in bars).After watching AAPL cannibalize themselves into total domination all over the price landscape with the iPod, I can't really argue against an attempt to do the same with tablets. My thinking on this has evolved as well. If anyone can figure out how to make a 7 or 8" tablet that isn't just a shrunken version of a larger one, and which has its own compelling features, I believe Apple can. I'm still certain that they won't sell it for $199, and that they won't need to, because it won't be some stripped-down piece of junk.
