Apple stealthily begins taking orders for iPad mini with Retina display
Apple pulled a rabbit out of its hat on Tuesday, silently beginning to take orders for its new iPad mini with Retina display. Announced on October 22 with a vague promise of availability “later in November,” the updated iPad mini is available to buy now online.
The latest version of the iPad comes in four capacities—16GB, 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB—with prices starting at $399 for the 16GB Wi-Fi-only model. As of early Tuesday morning, Apple’s U.S. online store listed ship times of one to three days for the 16GB and 32GB Wi-Fi models. The 64GB and 128GB Wi-Fi iPad minis, and all configurations of the cellular-equipped tablets, will ship in five to ten business days, according to Apple’s online store. Those ship times are likely to slip as Apple's initial supply dwindles.
Apple announced the iPad mini with Retina display back in October at the same press event where it took the wraps off the iPad Air. That full-sized iPad arrived in stores on November 1.
Get out those credit cards, because the iPad mini with Retina display is here!
