Ugh, same. My wife's OG iPad Mini finally reached its end (still working, just way too slow, and the home button is super hard to click). I was surprised that the latest available option is the Mini 4 from 2015... which still cost us $300. Either way she uses the thing like 8 hours a day so its worth it. But a refresh would be nice.

I know it wasn't the purpose of this event, but I was really looking forward to AirPower and the wireless charging AirPods case being released today. I don't know what's going on internally at Apple that's making them miss their release deadlines so badly, but this is stuff they said I'd be able to do with my phone 5 months ago. We're going to be half-way through the product cycle soon and they haven't even shipped all the features that the last one was supposed to have.
