Just curious if anyone uses it and finds it useful. I cannot find any utility in it but was curious what use scenarios there are out there where it could be handy.

I do sometimes wish my iPad mini supported SM, because it would make a great portable computer. I wouldn’t even need it to run two screens. But all it does is blow up the normal display to whatever it’s plugged into, so I end up with enormous apps and huge text. It works in a pinch, but sucks.

Yeah, I’m hoping the next iPad Mini will support this. At that point I would happily replace my laptop with it.

That said, I’d probably miss the full-size keyboard cases of its larger siblings. The iPad lineup never makes choosing one easy haha
