Price is definitely one of the important concerns when a new product comes out. While some folks are browsing on insurance quotes or the latest travel promos, gadget lovers are busy searching right now for any information about the newest device from Apple, the iPad.
So, how much do I need to shell out to buy an iPad? Well, according to Apple, the iPad comes in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB versions with $499, $599 and $699 price tags for each version respectively. If you want 3G, you’ll have to add $130. That said, you can get the iPad for as low as $499 and as high as $829.
The product with 3G will be delivered in 90 days while the WiFi only version comes in 60 days. The current available price is US Dollars. Apple will be announcing its international pricing at a later date. The Wi-Fi models will be shipping in late March, while 3G models will be shipping in April. You can also sign up at the Apple website if you want to be notified when the iPad is available to order.
After seeing the much-rumoured tablet computer, dubbed as the iPad, launched by Apple yesterday, we’ll be expecting the coming up of all sorts of accessories for this device as well. The earliest products are the bags from Tom Bihn specifically designed for the iPad, the Ristretto messenger bag and the Cache foam padded sleeve. The designers sure had a good idea about what to expect from the iPad in terms of size and shape. Way to go Tom Bihn! You sure came up fast with an iPad accessory, it’s like getting an instant life insurance quote online or heating your favourite steak on the microwave. Having an optimistic foresight is the key.
I will be flying back to Manila next week to continue the unfinished interior design projects of the two condo units. My schedule is kinda hectic these days as I’m preparing things here at home before leaving Dad to take care of some bills and other matters. There are still some pending tasks on my to-do list to finish and I also have to prepare the stuff I’m going to bring. Whew, I do need a Minka Aire ceiling fan to cool things down a bit. And I feel so sleepy and tired, I just want to rest a bit. Oh well… that’s life!
