iPad 2 Arrives in Japan, Hong Kong, Korea, Singapore And Eight Other Countries This Week
The folk from Japan will be very happy about this, not only have they had to suffer the devasting earthquake and tsunami on March 11 but Apple also decided to delay the launch of the iPad 2 from the original date set of March 25.
Finally, Japanese customers who want to get their hands on the gorgeous iPad 2 can do so at Apple stores and other retail outlets, starting at 9 a.m. local time tomorrow. I wonder if queues are forming already? Send in shots if you’re in the location please.
Incidentally, the iPad 2 with Wi-Fi will be available in China beginning Friday, May 6.
