What's nice about Apples is that if you read the licensing agreement, Apple will update your software up to, and including, the next major revision of the iPad's operating system. What this means is that if you have version 3.11 of the iPad Operating System. Apple will provide the updates for free such as version 3.12 to latest version 3.xx. When Apple releases version 4 of the iPad OS, that upgrade is included as well! You might have to pay for the next major upgrade such as version 5.xx.
