[QUOTE="Sean, post: 46313, member: 643"] It was hard to take the iPad 4th gen release seriously as a full release because I think all that changed was the clock speed on the CPU. there is no difference in price between the two models from retailers that sell 3rd and 4th gen, either. I also find it odd that Apple still sells the iPad 2 at a discounted rate. Looks to me like the dropping of the number was a justification to release intermediate versions with very minor updates that wouldn't really justify a new purchase. Sounds like they should have just waited for the fifth gen announcement and called it the iPad 4 if what you say is true. The most important thing from a consumer perspective is knowing what accessories will work and that matters most if they're changing the form-factor of the device. Harder to tell easily without versioning in the name! As for a justification to upgrade reduced weight would do it for me, but I think I'll update my Mac Mini before my iPad which I've had for much less than a year! I'm holding off on that for next-gen wifi support though, which is also reason enough to hold off on an iPad update. [/QUOTE]
