When is the new ipad coming? There's a whole bunch of iphone leaks right now and not nearly as many for the ipad? My issue is I want to sell my air before the new ipad comes out. When should I expect it?

I have bought the last two iPads on launch and received them during the third week of November which is Thanksgiving. That translates to the last week of October - is when they were released in 2012 and in 2013.
History will hopefully repeat itself again in 2014.

Most likely the ipads will be announced in October and released in November. Hope this helps.

If you sell your iPad now then you will in fact the sell it before the new one comes out. So just sell it.

No, they were announced separate. Apple likes to give all the launch limelight to either device, not both at the same time. I would expect new iPads in October, both announced and launched.

From Wikipedia
The iPad Air is the fifth-generation iPad tablet computer designed, developed and marketed by Apple Inc. It was announced on October 22, 2013, and was released in space gray and silver colors on November 1, 2013.[1] The iPad Air features a thinner design with similarities to the iPad Mini, along with the same 64-bit Apple A7 processor with M7 coprocessor.

Last year I got it on the release date at the end of October. Aren't they announced the same day as the iPhones?

Nope, iPads aren't announced on the same day as iPhones. iPhone is announced in September, and comes out in September. iPads gets announced like around mid to late october and comes out in November.

Who knows what Apple plans on doing this year, they may announce it in October and release it in October.
