Is the Ipad Mini a viable size, at about 8", for reading PDF's or larger docs? Or does that not have quite enough screen real estate? It seems like the magical dividing line in terms of "sufficient screen size" for most people on PDFs and more complex docs or graphics is about 10" minimum.
It depends on how good your eyes are. If Apple does come out with an updated iPad Mini, I will be all over it, especially if it's a substantial upgrade with regards to speed and memory. I do use an iPad mini for lunch time reading, but I find it too small for PDF's. In full page PDF mode, the print is too small for me to read. It's fine for regular ebooks though.
