The iPad Mini VS the Kindle Fire

The iPad Mini is coming out in some time and there are already rumors spreading that it would not last in the market. Steve Jobs (late) CEO of Apple said that a smaller version of an iPad might never work in the market, as the users want larger screens for the tablets. The company is still pursuing with the idea and launching the iPad Mini in some days.

You all know why and when Steve Jobs was brought back into the company, as the company was losing its position in the market and the company boosted suddenly to the top position when he joined back. After all, he had made sure every gadget had its own market, and were on top in their categories. Now that he is gone, we all hope it is not a start for the fall of the company gradually.

Now that the iPad Mini is about to be launched, the companies from all over the world in the tablet market have revived their tablets into new forms as well. Not to forget, Kindle is the only tablet cum e-book reader to take over the position of Apple in the tablet market. Apple is not fearful to any other company, not even Samsung. Alternatively, it seems different but it is something else at the back. Let me compare the Kindle with the iPad Mini so that you people will know the kind of competition I am talking about.
