Don't worry, Apple will not launch any new iPad at least in 2011, they will launch the Apple iPhone 5 probably in Sept or Nov first. iPad 3 maybe will have to wait until next year because right now a lot of countries still not yet get the iPad 2. But the iOS 5 really is coming in later this year and then apple will start working on the iPad 3 for the iOS 5. Apple never play the "hardware" game like those Samsung or Motorola playing, they will fully focus on the iOS and make the machine 100% compatible with the hardware they are using. That's why iPad running so smooth and responsive.
