Jocampo started this thread on Sept 26th. Does he still have time to exchange his iPad3 at the Apple Store for a new iPad 4?

Is the price still the same? I honestly have no complains. For what I do, which is reading PDFs and browsing internet, the current hardware does the trick. |

Some stores are offering a free exchange to the latest model for those who purchased it within 30 days.

It kind of sucks for those of us who bought the iPad3. No wait, , we earlier buyers didn't get the new connector rammed up our backsides rendering our connector-related peripherals from previous models unusable. Well some peripherals (like docks) will be unusable while others will simply require an overpriced adapter.

It probably will steal the show from Windows 8 RT as it doesn't look all that impressive. On the other hand, Windows 8 Pro will finally introduce a workhorse tablet that can be used by corporations and professionals to get a lot done as opposed to the very limited usefulness of iOS devices and Android devices. Like it or not iOS devices and Android devices are basically for entertainment and Windows 8 Pro will be for getting stuff done that pays the bills. Two different markets.

ETA: But I don't think current iPad 3 owners out of the return period should be too upset. It's not a groundbreaking update, it's a fairly minor refresh. You can be happy and secure that you have a great item and if you feel the need to upgrade soon, at least you can wait until the one that comes next and is thinner and lighter by 20% (hopefully, based on iPhone 5 and iPad mini weight) Last edited by seajewel; 10-24-2012 at 08:14 PM. |

To me this feels like the iPad 1->2 upgrade (but less so, as that added cameras as well as increased processing power), rather than the iPad 2->3 upgrade, so I don't feel any need to upgrade to the 4.

Mine it's the 4G model, Verizon Wireless.
I honestly don't want to argue with one of those sales guy, it's not worth my time. I believe resolution didn't change and it's same weight. So I won't see benefit of a faster CPU. For gaming, I always use my PS3 ... |

The games I play don't require extra speed. If this drops the cost of the iPad3 then I will look at getting one for my Parents for Christmas.
