iPad enthusiasts looking for the latest and greatest tablet will likely find something to love in the new iPad, especially if the Retina display lives up to the hype. Owners of the first iPad will find many reasons to upgrade at this point, including getting a camera, probably much better performance, and that display. They'll also have the alternative of a less-expensive, one-step upgrade from the original iPad to the iPad 2. A 16GB, Wi-Fi iPad 2 now costs $399.
If you already own an iPad 2 and are feeling satisfied with that, you're not missing out on a wholesale retooling of the iPad if you don't upgrade now.
Finally, it's no surprise that Apple didn't drop prices on the new iPad. The company's been able to sell its tablet for these prices all along, easily beating out similarly priced and even lower-priced competitors. And that's probably why we're not seeing a "Kindle Fire killer" either, despite rumors that a smaller iPad would be in today's lineup.
