Around 45 people were lined up in anticipation for Apple's iPad mini which went on sale in store at 8:00 a.m. today. The smaller iPad offers the features and power of the iPad 2 but in a smaller 7.9-inch size, it will be available in white and silver as well as slate and black and is currently a WiFi only device (a 4G version ships late November). Preorders for the iPad mini began last week and online stock for all models quickly sold out. There is now a two week waiting period of online orders. The iPad mini starts at $329.
