Hi I'm looking at buying an I Pad Air 2 in the hear future, is this a good time to buy or is there an update forthcoming. I know there is a page in the Mac magazine that advises on this but its all sold out in my area, so I was wondering if anybody might know.

I don't know what Apple's plans are for the iPad. I would prefer they consolidate their offerings to iPad Pro, iPad, and, iPad mini, just to avoid confusion. If you are looking for an iPad, can I suggest an Apple Refurbished, http://www.apple.com/shop/browse/home/specialdeals, just click on "Refurbished iPad" and see if anything meets your needs.

If I had to guess, I'd suggest there will be a few changes next March. Possibly the physical home button will go, maybe OLED screen although that could be reserved for the next iPhone. The iPad just saw a storage boost so that's unlikely to change. Headphone socket will probably go and the Lightning port will likely give way to USB-C/Thunderbolt 3.

Total guesswork, btw.
