Wait, really? You and I being readers of Hacker News are probably in a better position than 90%+ of customers to understand the benefits of one iPad over another. If it's not clear to us... who is it clear to?

Be very careful about that line of reasoning. My experience is that IT educated people are the least in touch with the mainstream world.

That's not how price hurdles work.

Products are segmented according to price, not features. There's a different market at each point and this determines what they will get -- not the reverse.

It's exactly because we're on HN we are not aware of this need. It's a big world out there.
