Dark side & light side? Lol. I'd probably do the same. Especially @ $199.

Not necessarily (at least for the iPad 2). I know plenty of folks who only have one iPad 2 right now and have been considering buying a second and even third one. I reckon a lot of iPad 2's will get passed on to other family members.

Granted, if you still only have an original iPad, the price on refurbished iPad 2's ($349 for Wi-Fi 16GB) will severely lower the resale value.
Yup. I've mentioned before. My wife gets my iPad 2, my dad gets her iPad 1. I get iPad 3 & hunger is no longer a problem.... Ok, well maybe not the last part.

Well, if you can't end hunger, you could at least do some good by donating one of those iPads to a needy person.

I'll PM you my address.

All tablets eventually drop in price. Why the focus on Ipads? The Prime started at $499 and others higher which weren't even close in specs.

I bought my brother a refurb iPad 2 about a month ago - the one he got was as new. You wouldn't know the difference.
I went the same route for my daughter's iPad she received as a Christmas present. Other than the word "refurbished" printed very small over the box's UPC code on back, you would have no idea it wasn't brand-spankin' new.

Other friends and co-workers who have purchased refurb from the Apple store have all had the same experience.

If you are in doubt, have no qualms about getting refurbished products from Apple.
