I won't - I haven't even scratched the surface of using my iPad's capabilites and I learn something new everyday.
It's more than enough for me right now, a few years from now might be a different story.

The first generation suits my needs just fine. I did just get it three months ago, but I think even had I gotten it last April, I would still wait until another generation. That said, I am more than happy that Apple has moved forward with the 2. The other platforms have cameras and faster processors, etc, so I can understand staying current and competitive, especially as people use tablets for different things. I don't need the faster processor speed for graphics, and I have no current interest in the camera, otherwise, then yes, I would consider selling the current to buy a new. But for my uses, there is just absolutely no reason to, so I'm not going to. In a couple years from now when the battery dies, I imagine I will probably then replace with whatever the latest generation is.

I've had an iPad since last June, but just upgraded, I love it as it is. I am thinking I will give it all a wait and see. It is a lot of money to spend and right now the changes are not quite enough to make me want to move up to the iPad2.

For now my iPad is doing all that I ask of it, so I'll not be replacing it for a while. Maybe if the iPad3 is all the rumours suggest, or if one of the up-coming android tablets manage to be all they promise, but only then.

I got my price difference refund for my iPad 1 today. Went to an ATT store and got a Mophie iPhone 4 charger pack, set of Plantronics Bluetooth headsets and iHome Bluetooth speakers. They were running a special and I got all that for my refund plus $60. Not a bad deal for the sacrifice of not upgrading.

My wife was saying she'd like an iPad so if we get a second one it'll be an iPad 2 3G and she'll take over mine...but it's not a must have.

I don't know for sure but I'm sure u can plug in a new iPad and use the most recent back-up from the first one onto the new one. That way you'll have all the data from the first onto the second. But I'm not too sure

Its not going to happen. Apple calls 2011 the year of ipad 2. That means 3 in 2012. Get 2, be happy ;)
