iPad insurance
On Friday 28th May the iPad goes on sale in the UK. Initially it will be available from Apple stores, some Currys and PC world. This news has been hugely anticipated and sales are expected to be strong.
The iPad pricing begins at £429 for a Wi-fi only unit and rises to £700 for 3G versions depending on the size of the memory.
The Tablet PC market is promising to be a new battlefield in the world of electronics with Dell announcing the launch of the Streak later on in the summer.
The iPad does have limitations that some observers feel lets the product down. Firstly, there is no phone built in, no camera, and no USB ports. However, sales in the US outstripped expectations and meant that the UK launch had to be delayed to satisfy demand in the US.
www.insurance2go.co.uk recently launched a new laptop insurance product that offers hugely competitive pricing on iPad insurance and we have already received numerous enquiries. It will be interesting to see if the anticipation leads to demand at Apple’s stores across the country.
The iPad is the fastest Apple product ever to reach 1 million sales which it did after just 25 days, more than twice as fast as the iPhone that is generally accepted to have been a game changer in the mobile market.
One of the reasons Apple’s iPhone and iPad are so popular is the vast number of Applications available from the App Store. It is a vital extra source of revenue for Apple and the Apps mean that customers can genuinely customise their unit. Apple’s policy of open source software development was inspired andis now being copied by other software providers such as Android.
