I just find it amazing that not too too long ago, my desktop computer had much less storage space than 128GB, and that was the norm, and I liked it gosh darn it! How fast things change. Of course, they always have been changing. My desktop now is 1TB and it feels like more than enough at the moment - I just wonder if we're reaching a ceiling with storage space or if in years we'll be at 10TB, 100TB, 500TB or more and think that 1TB was rather small. My current iPad mini though is, compared to 128GB, a rather paltry 16GB but I like it - I only keep what I most want on it and use it mostly as a glorified e-reader, so it's plenty of space for me.

Anyway, enjoy your new iPad Tom!

The new iPad Airs look great.
