Best things about the new iPad Air (over my original iPad 1)

- MUCH lighter. I never thought of the original iPad as a brick until I held an iPad Air
- Retina display on the iPad Air is awesome (same display as the iPad 4)
- I didn't think the faster processor would make a huge difference for me, since I don't play games. But navigation is much snappier
- I ran Internet speedtests on both my iPad 1 and iPad Air - the iPad Air consistently had faster upload/download speeds with the new MIMO technology
- Sound is better (2 speakers...I don't think they're true stereo speakers, but it's better than the original iPad

Wow, an iPhone 5s and a new iPad, and it ain't even Christmas yet :)
