I have an iPad2 with original iOS4.3.3, no jailbreak. Now there are several apps that require iOS 5 or above and I'm ready to upgrade. But I don't want to install yet the latest iOS7 (heard about some bugs, performance issues, etc.).
I backed up all the data and apps with iTunes (11.1) on Mac computer. But in iTunes I have only iOS7 as the option to upgrade. It's a pity I'm just a few weeks late, when this new os became available.
I've tried hard to google it, but all the links discusses just upgrade to iOS7.
Is there any way to upgrade to previous iOS6 now? Better without jailbreak, but if there will be no other choice I may consider …

For security reasons, once a new update is released the old ones are no longer supported, so there is no way to upgrade to six or seven.
However, there is no issue upgrading to iOS 7, because the interface is slicker and prettier, and it utilizes the iPad's resources well.
