So anyone with a 32gb thinking they should've gone 64gb instead?

Seeing the size of some of these apps and watching my storage space go down has got me thinking. Especially as more apps get updated in the future, room will get even tighter.

Around 15gb left. That's with some select apps, a handful of games, and 3 movies loaded. Still got room, just thinking ahead, as I'd probably want to put a little more media on there for when I travel.

Since I use my iPhone as iPod, I don't have 20 GB of music to load. That is a 64 GB. My iPad is 32 and suits me just fine.

I'm fine with my 32GB, with most of my music in the cloud and videos able to easily be added and removed, I have plenty of space left for actual apps and such.

Got 64g. For the reason that I am departing from PCs forever!!! I have no need to use one anymore and anything I would of needed one for I can use the iPad for. I figured 64 because of the movies and photos I would keep stored. The only regret I have is...get the ATT version. Wish I had just paid for wifi. Doubt I'll ever us the LTE. I have an iPhone for the desperate times in need of internet. No regrets on 64 though. Probably could of bout the 32 iphone instead of 64 though.

When I went to purchase my Ipad, there were no 32G in stock, so I bit the bullet and got a 64G Wifi. Glad I did because right now I've got only 33g available.

Won't have to shuffle apps, movies, etc back and forth between Itunes to now.:D

At first I did, however, after loading up all my apps on the 32GB iPad, it shows that I still have 26.4GB left. No worries or regrets for me now.

I went with 64GB for the 3rd year in a row but I'm lamenting that I didn't go 128GB.:D

Seriously, I use handbrake (ipad preset) to convert .mkv's and now that I'm converting to 1080p instead of 720p the filesizes are about twice as large as before. Most films are approx. 4GB each now.

I have just over 8gb of music (about 50 or so CDs) and still have 16gb left over all. I doubt I'll be loading any movies. I'll just use Netflix for that and with Pandora I doubt I'll load too much more music. I will be loading a bucket load of pictures over time, but that'll take a hella lot of pics to use that up. My iPad Classic had 64gb, but I still had about 45 gb when I sold it.

After loading up my apps and all of my photos, my 32gb was almost used up, so I swapped for a 64gb. Of course, I don't have to keep all of those photos on my iPad, but I like having them there with iPhoto now available, and spending $100 to double the storage is worth it for me. I plan on loading up some HD content, too.

I also got the 64gb wifi one because Best Buy was out of everything else. With my usage, I good probably get away with a 16gb. But I may trade it in for a 32gb and make sure I have extra room in cause I need it. and save a couple of $ for accessories.

I actually traded in my 32GB for a 64GB today, and I'm insanely happy I did. It probably helps that it's my first 64GB iPad, so I'm a little ecstatic about all the room.

I only installed about half of the apps that I wanted on the 32GB and I knew it wasn't going to be enough room. With the 64GB, I still have 42GB left, and that's after installing ALL the apps I wanted, plus a crap ton more!

So happy I went with the 64GB. :D

I have a 64 and love the space I had only a 16 before and realized real quick how fast it fills up .. I would def love to go pc free but I would need atleast 250 to do that but 64 is def worth it and I really don't ever have to worry about space

Nope. Only use the hard drive for what you absolutely need, and use cloud storage for everything else. I keep a 'desert island' set of songs and just stream everything else, stream movies/use netflix, upload any photos/videos I take and delete them off my iPad periodically.

Kind of annoying at first, but you never have to worry about losing your data

Not at all... I'm not a gamer (aside from little stuff like Draw Something or Words With Friends), only keep movies on there for flights, and music is rarely kept on it. (utilize iTunes Match this year, comparing to AudioGalaxy)

32GB has proven to be MORE than enough, once I got out of trying to fill it with my 10 favorite movies or so, and EVERY app I've ever purchased.
