Here we are now at the end of FEBRUARY. No iOS 7.1
Many articles have been mentioning that it would be out in March (I personally think it will be out towards the end of March).
Got a tip for us?

Goto a site with embedded video and scroll around immediately upon page render. I can get mine to crash 100 times an hour by simply doing that. Clean install, no restore of apps - that was the "sure fix" back then. No such thing as a sure fix
Go to gamespot.com and try to watch ANY video in HD. You get past every advertisement, but the second the actual video tries to load, it crashes Safari. Same thing with Google Chrome and I'm sure other browsers as well but I'm not paying to use a 3rd party browser.
I know it sounds stupid, but a lot of the times I use my iPad JUST for internet browsing and it kind of defeats the purpose of owning one if I can't have more than 3-4 tabs open or it crashes constantly.

Crashes here too. I am really pissed about safari/chrome crashes and i hope they get fixed in 7.1. Btw anyone on 7.1 beta try the above and report back if it crashes.
Are there a lot of people who experience crashes? My safari doesnt but Facebook does a lot

Yes, with multiple tabs opens it's quite common.
I guess I'm a lucky one.
Launch day rMini. No crashes. I only update with iTunes and restore as new, never use a back up.
It runs very well. Heck I'm even jail broken.
It just seems to thy Air owners seem to has this problem more and rMini owners.
Didn't happen on my ipad2 prior to iOS 7. Now it and my air crash all the time.

iPad 2 is aging .... But for iPad air I think it is related to 64-bit implementation of iOS mainly ....
My ipad2 is VERY unstable since the move to ios7.
Since I've been a little under the weather, and snowed in today, I've been using the air a lot the last couple of days. My air has blown up in safari multiple times an hour, and I've had other apps crash as well. I found it impossible, with only safari running, to have two usable tabs, one being macrumors and other looking up reference material. Two tabs and constant reloads, and safari crashing, combine to make the simple act of posting in here an annoying chore. It's a very bad user experience. I hope 7.1 fixes most of this.
I don't have a device so old like an iPad 2 so I can't say anything about it, but I'm quite happy with my iPad air.
Safari is buggy, I use mercury browser awaiting for 7.1, but the overall user experience with it is just fine.
