This is the beginning of the end for apple. So not even 12 months since the iPad3, 4 since iPad4, they are bringing out rehashed models. This is reminiscent of the iMac when it was catering the masses instead of actually pushing boundaries.
Mr Cook needs another Mr Jobs to oust him and takeover apple and make apple what it used to be - innovative. Not just playing catchup.
I doubt I'll be upgrading my iPad3 anytime soon.
"No one will need more than 637 kb of memory for a personal computer."People who still don't have enough room on their 64gb version, just have too much junk on there, or should just use a laptop.
announced yes, launched, not quite yet.
Feb. 5th for anyone who wants it.

Apple is losing the hardware specs comparison battle. They have better systems, but you wouldn't know it from the spec sheet.
This doesn't look good for an early release of the 5th Generation
The ipad 4 was a useless update. Apple should have just waited until march to release a proper ipad 4 and ipad mini.
They should at least roll out a retina mini
Quote from the last Town Hall meeting:
"Making new products that customers love is the priority. Revenue and share price is just a by-product of Apple’s efforts."
They don't want to make money

I hate the idea of a 128gb iPad.... that's just my opinion. I barely use up 16gb.
1. iOS devices tend to be short of "excess" space. So another Flash chip goes where? In a OS X device there were already generally two storage devices present ( 2 HDDs , HDD+ODD , HDD+SSD+ODD , etc. ). In iOS devices there is generally just one.
2. Cheap flash and and performance flash tend to have different wear characteristics. Increasing the wear level for a marginal improvement is highly dubious. This also means two different controllers since the characteristics are different. That isn't really cost effective either.

I could have sworn that the iPad came with more than just 16 gigs of storage space. Doesn't it have a screen? What about a metal casing? Processor? Why are people buying a huge flash storage device?
Also have to look at an MBA now.
iPad has too many drawback to work with it. It's just for consuming content and too heavy. Falls on my nose when I fall asleep
They'll find a way to increase MBA prices, just to create adequate space between "deals"
Why more expensive?
Moore's Law and also price per gigabyte has dropped by 50% in the last 12 months should mean the 128GB should be cheaper than the 64GB retina model when it launched.
