Come on. Info please!!!!!!!
Stop playing with us!!! Lol!!
 
My pals a Genius in the Apple Store in [SNIP], they've all been told to be back from lunch before 12.45 as they are making an 'iPad' announcement and as always, they get loads of calls and people coming in to ask stupid questions.
 
So everyone... I picked up my iPad in the States and now I'm back in the UK. I noticed earlier in the thread that somebody said Apps are available from the UK App Store but, when I click it on the iPad, it tells me I can't access it.

Am I missing something obvious here? Or do I have to wait until the end of the month for the UK launch?

I don't know if that's true, but I'd remove the store he works in, because that's the sort of thing Apple would fire someone over. :eek:

You can download most of them through iTunes (on PC or Mac) by searching, just not through the iPad itself it seems.
 
Thats what It was, sounds too good to be true doesnt it:(

I could get the 32GB and all the docks etc for 600, then by christmas when the ipad multi tasks and has some really great apps I could sell by Macbook CE and simply use the ipad to VNC to my macmini.

I reckon it will be that amount, it may sound too good to be true, but so does the 499, 599 and 699 dollar price points. Those prices are using current exchange rates, and adding VAt, so they are the most logical.
Hope we hear soon!
 
Is the store down ? No... it's just very very slow suddenly.

Big changes inbound perhaps ?

;)

I'm praying as I type
 
How will we be informed via there site or those who have signed up to ipad emails will they get a email automatically at 13:00

I have no idea, they have just been asked to come back from lunch early as there is a "European iPad announcement" I imagine the web site will change and emails sent out

I wouldn't trust the emails to be particularly quick... I'd monitor the apple store and keep an eye on various forums as well.

No doubt the news will 'appear' here very quickly after it's announced :D
 
This next hour is going to really crawl by...

I must find something to keep myself busy!

Lets hope for good UK pricing.

I'm refreshing my email by the minute.

I hope they will be in line with US prices, my pal thinks there will be around £450 starting model.

I got work at 2 so i wont be able to keep any tabs but im sure you guys will , keep this thread posted for when i get back


dino26 :apple:


ps: Apple please dont take the mick with pricing please apple ...please
 
The store usually has to go down half a day in advance just to change a sentence on there <exaggeration over> so shouldn't it have gone down by now if the announcement is expected at 1pm?

Oh please let this happen soon!!! :(
