So every time a faster processor comes out, the MSRP should increase? First time this happens in a while, as far as I can recall. FWIW I agree with you, Apple is basically forcing you to pay for the iPad Air + memory upgrade (but worse!) if you want this device. It's an obvious margin-increasing move on a product with declining popularity. Best to wait until it's inevitably discounted everywhere.
