Apple today announced the Wi-Fi + Cellular versions of iPad® mini and the new fourth generation iPad with Retina display will be available in China on Friday, January 18. iPad mini and the fourth generation iPad are currently available in more than 100 countries worldwide including the US, Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Japan and the UK.
The iPad and iPad mini models will be available in China through Apple retail stores, Apple.com and authorized retailers. Just last week, Apple CEO Tim Cook traveled to China to meet with partners and government officials, and where he announced that the cellular iPad and iPad mini models would be launching before the end of the month. Apple's focus on China has continued throughout the past several years, with the company having almost doubled its retail presence in Greater China since his last visit to the country just ten months ago.

On Friday, the entire nation of China learns that, no, we weren't kidding... the iPad Mini DOES NOT have a retina display :eek:
If Apple never designed their portables with Retina Display nobody would've cared. It's not like all their LCD laden products sucked before Retina came out. :p
In two months they will be out dated software :rolleyes:
just run software update
Ugh, finally, the cellular version iPad is on sale in China!
Commies don't matter to them, all Apple wants is their money.
Not every Apple customer in China is Chinese Communist Party member.
Not every Apple customer in California is left-wing socialist.

Right. It really is just in comparison to the awesomeness that is Retina that the Mini's screen looks bad.
You're right, they should have stuck with the 336 x 240 LCD from the Newton and no one would have ever known any better.
Or not, my $199 Nexus7 has a higher resolution display than the $329 iPad Mini.
Thanks for missing the point.
