Q: I just bought my iPad last weekend and I am not happy with the speed or the picture when watching Netflix. Should I have purchased the iPad 3?  Mine is an iPad 2. 16gb

The iPad 3 has a faster cpu and more memory than the 2.  You have 14-days for money back return.

You probably should get an iPad 4.

The speed may be a function of your internet speed? What is your internet speed?

An upgrade wont change things that much. The man thing is the speed of your internet when using Netflix and other internet streaming services.
