Well it looks like the April 24th availability date for the iPad in Canada has been scratched folks. Poof – just like that! How disheartening! Oh well, good things come to those who wait… And that would be us Canadians, along with friends from the U.K., France, Germany, Australia, Italy, Japan, Spain and Switzerland!
So why the delayed release of the iPad? Because sales in the US have significantly exceeded Apple’s projections. Good on you Apple, for delivering such a great product! We have to wonder if this is part of a “create hype” strategy. In any case, it’s working!
We hear that the end of May is the next targeted availability date for Canadians and international markets. The international market is huge, Apple! Sharpen your sales projection tool… Is it realistic to expect availability at the end of May for all? Lots of people are “holding their breaths” on this one… :)
Maybe when the iPad does become available in Canada, it will be a new version of the toy, one with a USB port, SD Card slot, a built-in camera, and much needed support for Flash? More wishful thinking!
Well I’m keepin’ on dreamin’ on for an iPad – although my Birthday wish has been busted like a balloon *sigh*. Oh well, end of May it is. Are there 30 or 31 days in May?… lol
Cheers!
