Recently, Apple surprisingly announced the fourth-generation iPad just seven months after its predecessor released during March. The unveiling of the tablet, expectantly, hasn't gone down too well with consumers.
According to a study conducted by Toluna QuickSurveys of 2,000 iPad owners, 45 percent of participants were disgruntled by the iPad 4's announcement due to the iPad 3 launch several months ago.
As pre-orders have shown for the iPad Mini (pre-order demand for iPad 4 wasn't as near as high), the revised tablet is receiving a more positive reception. 14 percent of respondents said that they will definitely buy the tablet, while 32 percent stated they will probably purchase the iPad Mini.
Subsequently, 46 percent of respondents are interested in purchasing an iPad Mini, with 21 percent saying they have plans to buy one as a gift.
The iPad Mini and the iPad 4, which Apple is said to be upgrading early next year, will release this Friday.

Yep, I'm surprised there hasn't been even more outrage. Imagine just buying your new toy a few weeks(months) ago and BOOM a new model appears promising double the performance and better camera all for the same price. I would be so pissed!
and then you buy your new iPad mini only to find it's old generation technology(low res screen,old processor,old cam) in a shiny new case. should have just called the the iPod touch grande.
Go Apple Go!! ziss boom baaaaaaaa :caked:
