Reasons NOT to buy an iPad 2 next month

Before I try to put the sanity back in the bottle, let me remind you that — at least as of today — the iPad 2 is just rumor. So when I tell you these things, they’re based on the best rumors available, purveyed by the very best of the rumor purveyors in the land.

Reason 1: The iPad 3 is coming

...I’m telling you not to buy an iPad 2 because the iPad 3 is on the way. There’s a reason.

All indications are that the iPad 2 is a mere mid-season design refresh, shrinking the size a bit, adding a camera where a camera was always expected, and keeping the display the same.

Reason 2: Steve Jobs may not be hands-on

Reason 3: No removable storage

Reason 4: You already have an iPad

Reason 5: Competition
