iPad prices

May 4th, 2010

The price information of the yet to be launched iPads has been leaked. The launch is due for March.Information available with Geeky Gadgets says that the 16GB iPad will cost £389. The 32GB edition will be priced at £439 and the 64GB version will cost £489.When calculated in terms of American dollar, the figures come down to $499, $599 and $699 respectively.If the figures revealed are true, then the prices are very high and not very competitive considering the market.What is worth mentioning is that all the three models are part of the first shipment of iPads and are devoid of 3G technology.Furthermore, iPad lacks USB port. This means that a consumer has to either opt for a 3G connection during the purchase or be content with no connection at all.This is surprising since integrated 3G enablers are the ones that make equipments very expensive. Whether in mobiles or in laptops, they tend to shoot up the price. In laptops they add close to £100.Without these features, it would be a concern for iPad to be able to attract consumers at this high a price.
