iPad Air with 2gb of ram will be a great upgrade but for now I sticking to my iPad 4.
 
Yeah I don't really think apple employees know much more than the general public does. We will have to wait for a tear down, but I'm not holding out hope of more ram.

At the very least, apps will load more quickly.
 
I think the frustrating thing is that they "future-proof" the device with the 64-bit A7 processor but not with the RAM which is still the performance bottleneck. Pretty annoying...

not performance. more multitasking and graphics.
3d games can load much better textures with 2gb of ram....and you can have much more apps in the background with 2gb.
like some other person said, 3 apps is about the max, then the ipad already closes one of them...
