Should I buy an iPad Air 2 now or wait for new version?

[bob24]

I would bet my money on no more New iPad Air .... we will end up with Mini and Pro in the future... just my 2 cents.

If they want me (and many others) to stop buying iPads ... they should do just that.

My iPad is a media consumption device at home and while travelling (with a bit of productivity tasks).

While they cover other scenarios, in my case the Mini is too small, and Pro too large and heavy. There is a reason they started with a 9in model. the Mini is good for people carrying it everyday and the Pro for content creation, but they are both niche markets. The majority of users will still want a 9in model.

Got mine this week actually, got a great deal on it. Upgrading from a 1st gen iPad Air, handing it down to the mrs. Very satisfied so far. Not that the original Air was slow in any way, but there's a different snap to the Air 2. I doubt it'll slow down anytime soon.
