If you had used layaway on your iPad (3) you wouldn't have had it before the (4) came out.

My bad, what do you call it when you compare two technologies with different specs, in this case, the Apple having older specs in pretty much every way, and the Apple price still comes out way higher?

I don't think we are discussing gouging on content... both companies gouge on content, don't act like Apple's charging you face value... the problem is that they can't stop with just charging you 30% markup on content, they want 30% on what you use the content on as well.
