The word on the street is that Apple will announce the next version of the iPad at a press event on March 7. Even though Apple has not scheduled the event yet, or confirmed the rumor, the street has pretty much agreed that March 7 is the day. Add to the growing body of evidence the fact that Best Buy is offering $50 off an iPad 2 right now. It is very unusual for new iPads to go on sale so it makes sense that Best Buy is making room for the next iPad 3.
Keep in mind that several reports have indicated Apple would continue to sell the iPad 2 for about $100 less than the iPad 3. If true, buying an iPad 2 now for $50 less might not be the best move. It might make sense to wait a couple of weeks to see what Apple has to say about the next iPad before making your decision.
