iPad2 - is it possible to upgrade from IOS 4.3.1 to 5.1.1, (avoiding 7.0.x)?

iPad 2 still on 4.3.1. Don't want anything to do with 7.0.4, for obvious reasons...

Can you upgrade to an earlier version?

iPad 2, iOS 4.3.1

You can ONLY Update to the Current available Version... which for the iPad 2 and later is iOS 7.

The iPad 1 can only go as far as iOS 5.1.1

Bother, that's a huge turn-off for users of slightly older Apple kit. (Perfectly happy with old IOS - don't want all the 'features' & bugs of 7, but some apps no longer work. I can see why Android is doing so well...

Thanks for the heads-up.
