Detect iPad Mini in HTML5?
The size difference between an iPad and iPad mini is nowhere near 1920x1200 vs 1280x800 on a 15" screen, it's only 20% smaller (44px vs 36px).

What if they made a device that was 2 inches smaller than that with the same resolution? Surely that would be unimaginable.
The need for good standards remains.

They wouldn't, because it would have too high DPI. That's why they went for a multiple with Retina screens. I remember seeing an Android with a 1280x800 display or similar, using "mobile-optimized" sites was a pain.
