Anyone that needs an iPad will be out in force this quarter. The rest of the people will wait for iPad 3.

I wish Apple would modify their schedule of introducing the new iPads in March or so and move into a Fall release time frame.

I think too many people put off buying a new iPad in the December quarter or return the holiday iPad gift they get in anticipation of the new iPads in the March quarter. Anecdotal evidence from my Apple Store buddy last year was that many original iPads were returned after Christmas because people knew the iPad 2 would be out shortly. I think the same will be true this year.

Wouldn't Apple be better off introducing new iPads around Sept./Oct. to maximize holiday sales?
