I'm in the same boat. I wish I had the newer lightning adapter for charging purposes, but that's not worth paying to upgrade. The 3 does everything I need it to, the only other thing that would push me to update is fear that being as many generations behind as I am means ios 9 won't install on it next year and the resell value will tank more because of that.

I'm in the opposite boat. I have an iPad 3, and ever since iOS 8 i've been feeling some definitely slowness. Everything in the OS feels jittery and sluggish, and god help me if I try to load a thread or website with a ton of images on it.

If the new Air has 2GB of RAM, I'm in.

I just hope 8.1 is released today. If they want to turn on ApplePay on Saturday or Monday, they should make sure everyone has 8.1 before then.

I mean, "everyone"

Also strange to me: The amount of hyping up a device that isn't even out for at least 3 months.

EDIT: I guess it's only strange in terms of being Apple doing it. I wouldn't/don't think it's strange when new game consoles are hyped for a year before release.

What in the actual gently caress is going on here

iComedy isn't working, but it should be fixed with iComedy 8.1

Seems silly to launch 8.1 on the same day ApplePay launches. Lots of opportunity for problems.

Ugh, that 16GB in the new iMac really burns my rear end. I didn't care about it in the phone, because I had already been planning on buying the middle level phone when I presumed it would be 32GB, so I saw it as getting double the storage for free.

But with the iPad, I was planning to buy the lowest level, so only getting 16GB feels like I'm getting ripped off.

EDIT: And no orientation lock switch :argh:
