I'm gonna pre-order, will probably take next Friday off and wait by the door.
When can we pre order? Exact time anyone?
Waste of money
Suck eggs.
If you have one already that is
Still going to upgrade. I upgrade every year.
what a let down!
Would rather just get a Macbook.
Not enough to make me want to upgrade from my iPad 2 at this time, unless I was able to get a really good deal selling it. Don't really care about the camera. The retina display and 4G LTE are tempting though.
The 16GB version is $40 cheaper in Australia ( Now $539AUD ). The iPad 2 16GB has been discounted by $150 ( Now $429AUD ).
How come no details on the pre-order date/time?
What the heck is the name of the "new iPad"? Come on apple??? Really??
I still have the first iPad so I am so excited and just can't wait it preorder this when my husband gets home.
Thank you for each of your effort on this wesibte. My mum enjoys engaging in research and it is easy to understand why. My partner and i hear all relating to the compelling tactic you give sensible guides via the wesibte and in addition cause contribution from some other people on that issue so our simple princess is always discovering a lot of things. Have fun with the remaining portion of the new year. You have been conducting a very good job.
