In short, I can't see only having one size tablet. I will consider replacing the Nexus 7 with a Mini if it comes with a retina screen. Unfortunately, many of my favorite apps on iOS are not implemented well on Android.
My sentiments exactly. The N7 screen quality diminishes (washes out) at some viewing angles. I can turn my iPad 3 to any angle and the screen never washes out.

For the most part, the Android versions of apps I'm familiar with from iOS have been disappointing. However, the Moon+ Reader blows away all my favorite reading apps on iOS. (I am an auto-scroll devotee, which limits the choices of reading apps on iOS.) And I really like the smaller size of the N7 for reading... so I'm torn, but the N7 will probably become my reading device, and the iPad my everything else, and my iPhone the always with me, goes everywhere device.

My laptop is gathering dust. I do still use my desktop a lot. Can't beat a 30 inch plus 20 inch dual monitor quad-core setup for getting real work done.
