Well, if you're on an iPad 3 already, you can hold off until iPad 6 or 7 unless there's some urgency i.e. certain apps won't run on iPad 3 anymore.

My rule of thumb is to skip until they announce the device is EOL and won't receive anymore updates, and when my apps start dropping dead like flies sprayed with ridsect (i.e. Only reason I upgraded to iPad4 from iPad1 was because the Ashens app and Cut the Rope stopped becoming available for it).

Totally agree with you, bro thumbup.gif

Guys, stop playing the "Chasing Game" with technology ! (Unless that you really have too much $$ and dono where to spend icon_rolleyes.gif)
FOr me, i will always upgrade when my current iPad is totally dead or cant perform what it is meant to be already, even iPad 1st Gen is still doing good for my Uncle, and he not even consider an upgrade laugh.gif

3GS's a great phone bro! Much more better handling in terms of holding the phone with one hand smile.gif

I agree. I would also wait for the new iPad 5 if I were you. The new processor will be nice for gaming and maybe there will be a surprising feature. I always rely on this website to compare the best prices out there. smile.gif

I think we can also called it the iPad 5 as it is the fifth generation iPad.
But iPad mini with Retina display is the one that really caught my attention.
