And spending 500$ on a new one is the sort of thing I would only do if I wasn't happy with the old one anymore.

What iPod Touch do you have? The 4th generation? If so, when it comes to text clarity, the iPad 2 is noticeably worse compared to the iPod Touch 4th gen. For me, it's always jarring moving from the laser-like clear text on the iPhone 4 to the dot-matrix like display on the iPad 2.
One nice thing about Apple products is they have fairly decent resale value so if you decide to resell your old iPad, you're only out $200~300.
Hmm, wonder how a lease model would work for the iPad. It's yours for a year and at the end of the lease agreement, you can pay extra if you want to keep it or return it if you don't want to keep the lease. HP, Dell, etc already offer leases for computers.
