Otherwise it matched the basic specs of the Air. The new iPad mini 3 seems to not match the Air 2 in specs, but only time will tell as no one has taken it apart yet.

I was hoping that Apple would have increased the color gamut on the mini 3 if it did no other improvements, but apparently they didn't. Oh, and I was hoping they would improve the WiFi too. It seems like this has been the most lackluster of updates for iPads and Macs in a long, long time!

Well, maybe the new Kindle Voyage will be a real improvement! Let's hope so.
I feel like they are leaving some stuff for next spring, so they can announce them along with the watch availability dates, and the 12 inch iPad. What would be awesome (but I know they'd never do it), is sell a watch with SIM card that works seamlessly with the iPod Touch or iPad Mini, so the main device is on your wrist, but for more apps and a larger screen, you can use something else that's NOT the ginormous iPhone. I would pay good money for something like this, and, for lack of alternatives, may get the Samsung Gears S, depending on details they haven't yet disclosed.
