I personally love the look of the ipad, aside from the minor changes they made from the 1 to the 2 I wouldn't change a thing, it's slick and sexy
Hmmm. I often thought to myself how ugly the ipad is. Certainly the mini is a huge improvement. The mba 11 elicits awe, like a Porsche. The full size ipad lacks any sense of design nuance. It is very functional, however.

Is it possible they didn't redesign it so as not to really piss off 3rd gen iPad owners? Or maybe they're saving the new design for when they're able to make the iPad thinner and lighter?
They didn't redesign it because the focus was on the mini debut. The full size update was not a full release. It was not even publicized before the event
