The iPad 2 Is Dead...Long Live The iPad 4!

[Jaguarr40]

Well it is only an announcement away but officially the iPad 2 is done and iPad 4 with Retina display is back. What do you think. I'll be out shopping for one this weekend if they are in stores that quick.

UPDATE: The iPad 4 with Retina Display is already up on Apple's Website!

I knew the time would come sooner or later. What about it smaller brethren - the iPad Mini? It's almost identical to it with the exception of its size.

I think the Mini will stick around for a little while longer just because it has the lightning connector

I agree...

Very good article to read from the blog and they mention the lightning connector - I suggest you read this.

Wow, I'm not sure there'd be a lot of compelling reason (for me, anways) to spend more on an Air over an iPad 4. They'd have to gimp storage on the iPad 4 or make it somehow less attractive. Not taking anything away from the Air but, to me, it's not leaps and bounds better than the iPad 4 in everyday use.

That is why I am going out this weekend to pick up an iPad 4. Best Buy already has them.

The refurb price will drop too so that's a plus any ipad 2 should be at a really good price point

I agree with you somewhat. When I first heard about the ipad air I bought an ipad 4( I owned one before but sold it ). I sold it because I Rarely used it due to its weight. With that being said I use the air every day and don't mind using it for an extended period of time. To me it made a big difference and enough to actually keep this thing. But it's all about preference and the ipad 4 at that price is still a great deal waay better than The ipad 2

I have an Air LTE but it has an Otterbox on it which negates any lightweight pleasantries but it's certainly not more than I can handle and I love knowing its safe in there.

I don't think I can upgrade my iPad soon. Would love to.

I'm in the same boat, although I'll probably go for the Air at this point
