Between this and the lower clock rate, it sounds like those weighing the Mini vs the Air will likely be better off with the Air. Which will suit Apple just fine.

Someone published a piece the other day which reported that bad choices at Apple led them to embrace screen tech that didn't perform nearly as well as Amazon's this round. I'll find it (unless someone else does) later, when I'm in front of my laptop as opposed to riding in a cab.
Edit:
Here's the one of the two articles.
"Apple fans might want to skip this analysis of seven-inch tablet displays because it ranks the Retina iPad mini at the bottom of the heap. Apple went with IGZO when it should have chosen Quantum Dots."
Now to find the piece which lays out a timeline that includes not only the choice of IGZO but Apple's purported sudden inability to rely on Samsung for panels due to their protracted legal battles. It would be interesting to know whether the latter bit's based on fact or is a case of what people used to call journalistic button-pushing.
