What are the chances of it coming out next year, or is 2017 more likely?

If people think late 2017 is most likely i might buy one now.

The more power a product has the longer Apple takes to update it. Mac Pro, iPad Air 2, MBP15, and this iPad Pro probably all on longer refresh cycles.

Come on guys, no one but apple knows this so please stop asking stupid questions that no one outside of apple would know the answers to.

I'm inclined to think the Pro may not get upgraded till 2017. Would prefer Sept/Oct 2016 but that might not be so. We'll have to wait and see.

This is a good point. I did a little research into release cycles and its been roughly yearly for the iPads, and iPad 2 has the longest stretch so far at 416 days to present. ( I didn't realise that this website actually has a section a dedicated buyers section with release cycles. )

So, i suppose next year for iPad pro 2 will be a likelihood. Still want one now though!! :(
