Guess ATT should be scared....

i still dont see why apple have been so restrictive with what service their devices use. All though it is a clear advantage for AT&T to have such a popular device strictly for themselves.

Possibly yes, but what I am hoping is that they pull their act together and put more time and money into their network. Good for all.

Oh boy, the haters aren't going to like this. As if having millions of iPads already sold wasn't bad enough, now they add another 4,000+ stores to start selling even more iPads. And all that money going to Apple.

Oh the horror of it all. Well, they did say the launch was on Oct 28th, so it is just in time for Halloween.

On sale = available at a discounted price

for sale = available for general purchase

right? I've seen this a lot on Tom's.

So let me make this clear: this version of the iPad isn't modified for CDMA radio, but instead uses a MiFi to convert Verizon 3G to a wireless network?

Is that correct?

First time I have actually seen prices on these....(shows how much I care lol) and WOW....I thought the top ones would be around $500 haha

Definitely have no curiosity at all for these now

 

[Randomacts]

Waiting to see what the Blackberry or Windows 7 pads turn out like.

Apple scheming more money out of retarded people who fall for Apple's gimmicks. Bravo, sir, bravo!

1gb/month is a joke...

 

[dEAne]

I will wait for a new model.

 

[myriad46]

Has it occured to anyone that the data network research and the CDMA hardware bought by apple is for a Verizon iPAD, not an iphone?

 

[long2know]

The Samsung Tab for $399 subsidized by mobile carriers is starting to look even better ..

1GB of data for $20/month... is this the only data plan? The pricing on data needs to be coming down, not going up! These companies are milking us big time

 

[Guest]

if your buying an iPad then your not really concentrating on data plans and cost of ownership, just the hypnotic draw of that fruit shaped logo.....

Only in the good ole US of A were the almighty dollar prevails above all else and the corporate heads shaft the consumer sans the KY.

$830 for the 64gb version. I guess Foxconn has raised the price for the virgin tears this thing runs on.

I can't believe how many people are overlooking this fact. My coworkers for whatever reason are rampant about the CDMA Verizon iPad, oblivious to the MiFi gimmick. Not Apple's or Verizon's fault, I think it just proves how much herd mentality there is about popular new gadgets these days.
