Where oh where is Apple’s IPAD in the South African Marketplace? ….. nowhere, that’s where. Seems South Africa is not a high priority for the release of this new gadget that everybody wants. Apple would have sold thousands by now if there were stocks in South Africa but not one supplier of Apple in SA is even willing to estimate a guess of an arrival date and they’re just as much in the dark as everybody else.

A few people we know have shipped in international units but like the Iphone this is often problematic when it’s not customised for SA cellular networks. I know we’ll personally be waiting for the official release in SA, whenever that may be and even then we’ll probably wait (anxiously) for six months for the price to drop as those first on board always pay dearly for it. We’ve learned from experience.

Come on Apple, SA wants your gadget !!!
