I wasn't going to get one but my dorm's fire alarm went off. So, might as well since I'm up, right?

Just ordered a 32 GB Black and Slate iPad Mini!

And Apple, for god's sake, where is iTunes 11? This is getting too frustrating!

I really like the look of the white iPad mini. I hope the iPad maxi gets a similar design next time.

Apple Store APP!

Ordering via the Apple Store iOS app seems faster than trying to use their web site.

I guarantee you it'll be within the next 7 days. They have to update iTunes for the iPad mini, and there's no way they would update iTunes 10 at this point.
