Sorry, I misled you, it's $209: http://www.amazon.com/ARCHOS-101-Internet-Tablet-8GB/dp/B00422W5QO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1337120582&sr=8-1

It's far more likely that Amazon will release a 10" Kindle Fire at $299, than Apple releasing a 7" iPad at $299.

If she had AppleCare+ then that's the standard policy, $49 for a replacement.

A 7" device would be maybe $65-$75 less to manufacture. Other costs, shipping, marketing, warranty support stay more or less the same. If Amazon is spending $180-$200 for their device, there's no way a smaller-format iPad could be manufactured a…

If Apple reduced its profits by 50% the stock price would collapse. Whether you agree with it or not, Apple is a business that is accountable to the shareholders. Apple can't just decide to be charitable.

So people who don't want to pay $499 for a tablet will happily pay half if it has the identical feature set with the tradeoff being a smaller size? In other news, huge demand exists for a $15,000 smaller-size Lexus.

The summary page in iTunes (main page when you connect your iPhone/iPad) will tell you how much storage each category (Audio/Photos/Apps/etc) is using.

Let's also not ignore that the anticipated market for tablets in 2013 is double what it was in 2011, so Apple at 50% is still going to have record sales against the fragmented competition. It's inevitable that the rest of the market will eventually…
