TECH TALK: Best of 2012 – The iPad Mini

KULJEET KAILA
VANCOUVER DESI

Merry Christmas!  One of the most opened and expected gifts of 2012 was the iPad mini.  Did you get one?

As much as some of us may have thought “who needs that when you have an iPhone and the regular size iPad” – this thing has the instant cuteness attraction factor.  One can’t help but want the mini version.  Trust me – I was the biggest critic of this and soon as I saw my best friend with it – I had a moment.  Typical Apple product scenario.  But hey, can’t complain, tech lovers can do so much with the iPad mini!

The smaller device makes it easier to FaceTime with the HD camera and it also has a sleek, crystal clear display, powerful A5 chip, and  iSight camera with 1080p HD video recording.  So you won’t look so awkward holding up the bigger slate verison of it!

The mini is complete with ultrafast wireless and 1000′s of apps to download – read books, take pictures, skype and then slip it into your purse or case.

It defined that this year – great things DO come in small packages!

TECH TALK is brought to you by Crown Palace Banquet Hall:
