i'm really enjoying going back to iOS 5.1.1 with the jailbreak that allows me to use the Kensington Bluetooth Keyboard Case and a Bluetooth Mouse. this is the true laptop replacement setup. i make everyone in Starbucks envious

I have a 3 and a 4 right now (was planning to sell my 3) and I cannot tell much difference other than the plug (which I like) and the yellowish tone to the screen (which I do not like). I have not decided yet whether to just keep my 3.

Agreed. They are becoming like laptops. No one buys a new laptop every year. Happy with my 3, my gf still has the 1!

yea i think it is difficult to upgrade an ipad every year. releasing them twice year makes it even more difficult.

I personally think the iPad 4 release was an abnormal release in the cycle. Purely to get people onto the lightning connector. It'll go back to yearly cycle either in march, as it has been, or October.

For those that did, how much did you sell the 3 for? I have a Verizon 32GB LTE iPad 3. How much should I sell it for? Also, if I do buy the 4, will the 5 come out in another 6 months?!?
Thanks

it will cost about $400 to make the switch. i am concerned about a thinner redesigned ipad 5 in the next 6 months if apple goes to 2 updates a year.
