Could Apple update the iPad very soon?

Buy it now and enjoy it's versatility.
The killer punch is it's convenience. Light, portable and instant web access.

Everything gets superceded in time so have fun now and to hell with delayed gratification........

The next generation iPad will be better but it's probably 18 months down the line and your current model will make a great gift to a niece or nephew when the time comes.

There will always be a new XXXXX coming in the next year or two. Steve Jobs said a long time ago he wanted people to buy a new iPod at least every year to have the latest and greatest and he has held to that principle in every Apple product line. Does the ipad do what you want it to do as it is right now?

Yes it does. So I've ordered one.

Remember that the iPad is literally still being released in a number of markets. We here in Ireland still haven't had our official release of ver 1. If apple were to release more hardware say in the US this would mean large numbers of potential buyers holding out until version 2. Apples yearly upgrades have worked until now I can't see them changing anytime soon.
