Impreuna cu anuntul privind lansarea versiunii albe a iPhone 4, Apple a anuntat si lansarea tabletei iPad 2 in inca 12 tari pana vineri. Tarile care vor avea tableta disponibila in magazinele Apple si ale resellerilor fac in mare parte din continentul astiatic iar in Europa si pe continentul african doar 2 tari vor avea iPad 2 de maine. Atat versiunea Wi-Fi only cat si versiunea 3G vor fi disponibile in toate tarile insa probabil cantitatile vor fi limitate. Cea mai apropiata tara care va avea iPad 2 incepand de vineri este Turcia.
Din pacate Romania nu este inclusa in al doilea val de lansari a tabletei iPad 2 insa speram la valul 3 avand in vedere ca si in vara Romania a facut parte din al treilea val al lansarilor. La noi Orange este principalul “candidat” in ceea ce priveste lansarea iPad 2 insa presupun ca Vodafone nu se va sfii sa includa modelul in oferta curenta.
