I really like mine. I got the white version. I used it to replace the HomePod in the bedroom and that one went out to the living to be paired up with another HomePod. OMG, the sound!

Anyway, about the Mini. Nice little powerhouse of sound with the functionality of the HomeKit and Siri. Will work perfect with the TV in the room and for checking weather, listening to news, morning music alarm, etc.

I too was surprised at how "mini" it actually was. At first I thought, "Oh, they can't be serious!". But after setting up with Apple Music and listening to some choice tunes, I was very satisfied. Probably will be the only Apple product I buy this cycle, and it was a good one!

Cool! So the one in my bedroom goes out to the living room to form a stereo pair and the mini goes in my bedroom. Maybe even a mini for my kitchen / dining room. 

I fully support Apple's position. I see it also as a contract breach and Epic knew what they were doing.  Apple is following their remedies per the contract. At the same time, I really miss playing Fortnite. But it has also broken my addiction and got me to pay attention to other games which I had forgotten, like Minecraft.

I just think Epic and Tim Sweeney really shot themselves in the foot with a 12 gauge shotgun. Their effed. They couldn't see that Fortnite was a fad just like any others and they have done a pretty good job of ending the fad quicker than time would have.

This is how humanity waste resources and pollute the nature.

God, isn't that the truth? I remember when MS revamped the Office suite and added in the Ribbon. Deadlines were missed because I had to figure out where everything went just to pump out my documents and spreadsheets.

I wonder what Epic is thinking...
I get they are frustrated with the 30% “Apple Tax” but their actions make no sense.

I'm thinking that for them, they can only win.   They can't lose:

Their game is to break down the walls of the walled garden.  

-- If they succeed then they win

-- if they don't succeed then they go back to obeying the rules -- and have lost very little (but gained a bunch of free publicity!

A quick study of the Reddit dedicated to Fortnite Mobile shows that fans of the game know what's up. That Epic f'd up and they bear the brunt of the responsibility for this mess. So whatever publicity they have gained is largely negative, I think. JMHO
