Here's the wifi connection I get at home.
I don't 'htink it's my internet connection. I've tried 20 different websites, the performance of the ipad 4 is on par with the ipad 3/ipad 2/ipad mini. Only some sites do load a bit faster- that's actually a small bit faster.
App store is still slow at times; under the Purchased tab, you can see how slow it can really get!
I'm going to actually keep this ipad because after using it for nearly non-stop (aside from a full battery calibration), I still think it's bulky, heavier, and not as good as an ipad mini. The only value added to the ipad 4 vs. an ipad 3 is the faster wifi - but then I don't even see that performance increase! But the only thing even worth keeping it around is the display! So rather than hassle with owning another ipad mini, then seeing it being updated in 6months and having to rebuy the mini, i'd rather hold on to this ipad 4, then sell it if I must depending on retina mini if unveiled next 6months.
By the seat of your pants "feel" of the ipad 4, I will say it's not worth the money IF you already own an iPad 3. If you don't own one like myself (anymore), I'll definitely reconsider taking back the ipad mini over this ipad 4. I've witnessed retina display on my previous ipad 3 and yes, it's gorgeous, but the entire 9.7" screen plus size/weight is just a real turn off for portability. For at home use, I'd rather use my MBP!
