iPad 64gb vs 128gb?

Hi there,

I'm going to upgrade my old iPad 1, it's time!

My old one is 64gb and was always adequate, my Daughters was 16gb and she had problems when downloading and storing films and photos. She ran out of space frequently.

So... I will go to the 32gb as a minimum but I'm probably going to go for the 64gb. I intend to use it for evernote and omnifocus as well as personal apps and stuff.

My question to those of you that use this for business, what do you advise? 64gb vs 128gb? And iPad air vs iPad mini retina?

I saw the advert for penultimate and have decided to reconsider my initial decision to go for the small factor. Thoughts?....

My question to those of you that use this for business, what do you advise?

Actually, businesses often favor the lowest capacity 16 GB models because there is hardly anything left for the music, videos, and games many people want for personal use. That probably explains the reason the rather dated 16 GB iPad 2 is still sold.

I agree 32 GB should be the minimum for an iPad if entertainment or additional apps are even minor considerations, and even that isn't enough for those with fairly modest entertainment needs. 64 GB should be more than adequate, but if money isn't a major consideration the highest capacity iPad Air would be my first choice.
