I-Pad air

Want to buy first I-Pad just wanted to ask if this new one seems to be a good product? Not sure how long its been out or the reviews,so figured I would ask people who know. Thanks if it gets good reviews will get one this week. Im still using a flip phone,this year will be upgrading that also.
  • The iPad Mini with Retina Display went on sale yesterday. That was kind of a surprise because the general assumption was they were going to become available November 22. That was a pretty low key introduction for Apple. I imagine they are in short supply.
  • Sounds good,at best buy they were pushing it.I wanted retina display and gps enabled,was going to take model before I-pad air ,but they were saying none in stock and if I wanted retina this was only option now. I want to use it traveling with camping apps ect. Also want to get a waterproof case and maybe use it oneday as a secondary navigation device on a boat.I have a chart plotter and sounder ,but this would be good as a backup separate from the garmin.If gps stopped working you could use I-pad with navionics or some other app.Guess im going to enter 21st century and get one. Thanks.
  • My wife upgrade today from the original iPad.
    Air is much more powerful and faster WiFi downloads etc.
    The old one feels clunky now, no going back.
    I have the iPad3 and still happy with it, a little envious.
  • It's Apple.. it's good. There are 6 reviews on Amazon. Too new to be on here.
