Actually, I got the black 32g wireless iPad 1.5.
Which means that I installed iOS 4.3 on my Original iPad, and got most of the software goodness.
I'm a firm believer that with Apple, you should upgrade your hardware every other generation. That keeps the software pretty much in sync with the hardware - the main problem I've had with Apple products is that the software outstrips the hardware capability well before the hardware dies.
Heck I just gave my brother a pre-intel powerbook running OSx 10.4, & he's happy as a clam (strange cliche...) Computerwise, he's living back in 2005.
Meanwhile, I'll sit tight & hope that the next iteration of the iPad is a 7 incher. But even if it's not, it will be lighter & faster, with a stronger battery and a better screen, and will make perfect iWaffles for breakfast, unlike the iPad 2, which is deficient in that important respect.
