A 7 Inch iPad?

Following up on my last post; there's been a lot of talk around the pod casts (such as the fabulous MacBreak Weekly) on the possibility of a 7 inch Apple tablet (a smaller iPad or a larger iPod Touch?).  It will be interesting to see if the rumors come to anything.

My feeling is that Apple should pursue the 7 inch tablet idea.  The Nexus 7 has had plenty of positive attention on the Internet over the last few days.  Here's an opportunity for Apple to, again, take on someone else's idea and do it better, working it in with the already well established Apple ecosystem.
