I really just want to know if it is something to recommend to friends.

But....... The new APC mini might be a dealbreaker. Same price, multi-color PLUS faders. And who knows what people will write for it.
I tried the Launchpad Mini in a music store last weekend - buttons are small, and I have big fingers, but it seemed OK.

If I didn't have the Launchpad Mini (and a number of other controllers), I certainly would be considering the APC Mini; in fact, I will be fighting GAS not to get it, although it sure is attractive, especially with the 8x8 matrix and the faders (although the Launchpad's solution is pretty easy to use).
