If I am not experiencing any of the bugs & issues this update was released for, is it really worth loading ? More so when there have been further problems reported by those that 've taken the plunge on their iPhones & iPads
IOS 5.1.1 update on the New Ipad

Hi Tara, I was going to ask the question in a different way: what does this new update do? And I'm surprised there isn't a whole lot of discussion on it already! I was tempted to go the the update page and see what it had to say, but I'll bet it won't tell the whole story.
Cheers!

Since you are into posting links, that explain the issues experienced with an iPhone, that link gives you some pretty good idea on what you'll encounter with updating the iPhone. I'm assuming you are wanting to know about your iPad. Here are some links that you might want to further read, FROM this forum:

Shed light on the aftermath? Only time will tell, this was just released a week ago.

So I ve done it just to stop the nagging feeling......and to load future updates quicker! Above all to stay updated!
I haven't noticed any anomalies and it took only 5 mins.....

Really, regarding your concerns of after math...it's hard to say if there is any yet, since the updateis fairly new. I updated mine a day after it was released and my iPad is running fine. I use it quite a lot here on this forum and have not noticed any issues ...for me at least.

It installed it onto my wifes iPad 1 and have not noticed any issues.. seems fine, same on my new iPad 3.
Shannon-what version are you currently running on your iPad.
Verify by going to settings/general/version.
The latest update is 5.1.1 -- if you are at 4.3.5, you will not have the ability yet to do it over the air (OTA) and will need to do a direct wire connection to iTunes on your computer.

I have a question, I was over on the Apple forums and was reading that a few people have been having issue with the 5.1.1 update causing their Ipad2 and Ipad3 bricking the ipads. I have looked through these forums and havent seen anything about this, I was just wondering. Me and my wife are working in Kuwait and are wanting to update our Ipads with the new IOS 5.1.1 and if there is an issue I dont have a local apple store to run to and get it fixed. we are currently running IOS 5.1.
