If you are still not aware, from 28 May, the long awaited Apple tablet will be available in nine new countries, including Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Spain, Japan – and of course, France.
Even better is the fact that we can pre-order now iPad of the Apple website for a price that will be from 499 ? in France (if one considers the fall of dollar + tax in the U.S., it becomes much less attractive to move to the U.S. just to buy …) Note that the number of units for pre-order is limited to two and that prices are not uniform across countries in the eurozone.
On the differences of the USA, these nine countries (including France) will not have to wait for the arrival of the 3G iPad one month after the release of version Wi-Fi. This means that whatever model you choose, you may receive an iPad home May 28 at the earliest – and with free shipping if you order directly from Apple’s site! The tablet is also available in Apple stores two of the Hexagon (Paris and Monpellier) and from selected retailers such as FNAC and Darty.
Starting today, it is also possible to buy a package with a special three-day SFR for 9.90 ?. The two operators Orange and SFR have already unveiled their first offers, which are quite similar and it is either stuck with a fixed rate slowed or an unlimited package. Orange will offer the package most expensive at 39 ? per month without commitment, with 1GB more than the offer of SFR. And do not forget that VOIP services like Skype are not available with these packages.
