Default iPad 2 Launching Internationally on March 25th

http://www.cultofmac.com/apple-ipad...-5pm-local-time

"Given how difficult it is to get an iPad 2 in America right now, you didn't have to be a die-hard cynic to think that Apple was going to have to repeat 2010′s one month international delay in launching the iPad internationally."

I guess they must have confidence they have enough in the channels to satisfy the demand, as well as supply all those of use waiting for our iPad 2 in the US, since Apple is planning to launch the iPad 2 in 25 countries this Friday. Apple also announced in April the iPad 2 will be available in additional countries to include Hong Kong, Korea and Singapore.

Technically, Hong Kong is not a sovereign country, but a "Special Administrative Region" of China.



Sorry, I have SO little real knowledge in my head that when I DO know something interesting, I just have to show it off.

I was going to skip this generation or at least wait until Apple got smart and offered a MBA/iPad combination device.

But then I won an iPad1 in a contest. So I have two. In theory I could sell them both to pay for an iPad2. This how the Gadget Girl brain works, anyway.

I sure would like to have a camera in my iPad. Faster and sexier helps, too.

You mean something like the Lenovo U1? Apple doesn't tend to copy others until there have been a few generations to work out the kinks and the technology has improved. I think you'll be waiting for quite a while...

I was being a bit snarky there. I just see some sort of convergence of MBA and iPad in the future, even if it they don't call it that.
