This. We'll know come Tuesday after Verizon's announcement. Maybe they'll announce an iPad compatible with their network but it's looking like they'll be getting the iPhone. It's been speculated that they'll begin selling on February 2nd actually, which would coincide with the vacation blackout dates.

The Verizon phone is due on Feb 10th. If the blackout is 3rd-6th then it must be iPad 2 time.

If the ipad 2 isn't announced by the middle of February (which it probably won't) then we will have to wait till March or April (probably April). Apple is trying to hold off on the ipad 2 in order to keep selling ipads and get the ipad 2 as perfect as they can.

Do you think that there will be an update to the iPad iOS with the next hardware release?

I have held off on upgrading until 4.3 comes out.

Maybe something small, like 4.3 (I'm pretty sure that the Verizon iPhone is shipping with 4.3, it enables the WiFi hotspot ability for carriers that will allow it).

The next big iOS update (5.0) will be announced sometime in March or April sometime probably and ship in June/July with the iPhone 5.
