I had the same dilema. I decided to go for the mini... as Im a student the price is much easier to swallow!! I do love the small, but if I was going to get the small, Id pay a couple of hundred more and get the medium/large. As far as qualitiy, I agree, the classics seem to be made much better. Are you debating about getting the new mini (A65055)??
yes yes the new mini.. yeah i wanted to get mini at first but now that ive heard abt the price increase, im thinking if i shld secure my classic before the price increases! haha..
