Overpriced. What is that?

A product is worth what you are willing to pay for it. If you can't afford it don't buy it. No one is holding a gun to your head.

If you can't afford business fly standard class. If you can't afford a Rolex buy a Timex.

If an iPad is out of your price range buy an Android tablet.

It's an individual's money and they are free to spend it on what they want. If they choose to spend it on what may be considered "overpriced" by some what concern is that of anyone else?

Things are overpriced when you can find a similar or superior product for much less money. You can do that with the Mini.

It's absurd that the Mini is $330 and the iPad is $500. Look at the difference in those two devices. They share absolutely  nothing in common past the title "iPad". One is a cutting edge powerhouse that is the top of its class while the device that is roughly ~70% of its price is built entirely from components sourced in 2010. That's pretty bad.

It has nothing to do with afforability and has everything to do with "why would you pay $330 for a Mini when the $500 iPad is ten times the device in every way, shape, and form?"
