Today Apple UK announced the prices for the iPad in the UK. It looks like us brits get the worse end of the deal again.
“Pricing & Availability

VAT) for 32GB and £699 (inc. VAT) for 64GB for Wi-Fi + 3G models. iPad will be sold through the Apple Store, Apple’s retail stores and select Apple Authorised Resellers. The iBooks app for iPad including Apple’s iBookstore will be available as a free download from the App Store on May 28th.”
Apple are the only company out there who can overcharge for their technology and people will still buy it. I quote a friend “I think they could have priced it at £800 and it would have still sold out…” which is very much true.
I wont be buying it, as I can justify the cost, but im in doubt that it fly off the shelves.
The iPad is to go on sale in the UK on the 28th of May.
