that kind of answer tell me that you do not own any of apple product with ios. If you do not know what you are talking, shut the fxxk up.
An ios that does not have latest ios update, cannot download new apps, cannot use youtube, cannot use maps, cannot use shit all in a few months time, when all the apps upgrade to latest ios.

This sound like Microsoft...the fact is Apple is fast becoming like Microsoft & soon with "windozed" 8, is becoming like Apple; for Jobs & Gates are actually good buddies. In the near future, Microsoft will "marry" Apple & we will have mApple... ha ha ha ha

Think will get one for wife, looks like an ideal tool for her Instagram. iPhone 5 really is still a little small for this purpose.

ipad mini uses nano sim form factor. there's no ipad4. the new ipad is renamed as ipad with retina display.

That is the problem. With iPad mini, you can share SIM card with iPhone 5. With iPad, you need to use a cradle to do this.

Long gone are the days when the OS were only updated only every 1 or 2 years.
This is especially true with the smartphone/iPad market. If Apple didn't add features, the masses of Joe Blow & Ah Sengs wouldn't buy the new products.

That's why it is important to know what you really wants to do with the hardware you get BEFORE you spend your $. Unless of course you have plenty of $$$ to spend on all the new gadgets.
