Just a heads up Walmart has orginal Ipad minis both the white and black for $249 right now, I know it doesen't have the Retina display but for the price its a damn good tablet and perfect for gift ideas. I had to pick one up for that price and have no complaints with it, I own a regular size Ipad as well and the smaller screen hasn't bothered me as much as expected, since its so small and light its perfect for travel.
