    For a $100 difference the upgrade is well worth it. (base model)

    iPad2 is also available with 32GB and 64GB. Before you compare, you need to gain more information about the products.

    Hi Nobody,

    When Apple launched the iPad 3, they also announced that the iPad 2 would only be available in 16GB, if you look at the Apple store online you will see that they only have the 16GB model available.

    Some other stores may have the 32GB and 64 GB in stock, but these will be the last of these for the iPad 2.

    What people are not talking much about but what is equally important is the Ipad 3 has 1 gig of ram, compared to the 512 on the Ipad 2. This will also help it be a quicker, zipper product. I ordered mine.

    the jackass thing about apple, nintendo, microsoft, sony, and all those is that they are planned for 10 years down the road. I bet iPhone 7 is in development, the iPhone 6 being tested
