But the Mini2 will have more real estate than 7" tablets and it will have 324 ppi. That is more than enough to comfortably read on. I'll wait a while to make sure the hardware doesn't have any issues, but I don't think it will as the iPad Air seems to be okay.

Ipad Air compared to the Kindle Fire HDX: HDX was much nicer to read on than the Ipad Air. I looked at both yesterday and the HDX you could easily change size and fonts and the pixels were wonderful to read on, nice and dark (Helvetica font). The Ipad Air was not so good. It was okay don't get me wrong, but not like the HDX. I did see the blue edging around the border (HDX), but it didn't bother me. I tried to change the amount of light, but the floor model wouldn't let me so may not be a good test. The other thing is a rude Best Buy employee changed what I was looking at! So couldn't try changing fonts or anything on the Ipad Air.
