According to the internet, iPad 1 16Gb WiFi was £429. Currently you can sell it on eBay for between £175-200, so there's a loss of £200-225 over the life time from brand new, so if you're unhappy you can sell it and cover at least half the cost of a new iPad if it's on the upgrade path.

It's an expensive toy, and it is a lot of money, but no one made anyone buy one.

I do agree. But it would be nice to know up-front what to expect with respect to security updates.
