Staples Debuts iPad Pro Pre-Orders With November 25 Launch Date

Quick question: what do people think the 128GB iPad Pro Wifi version will cost in the UK?

(A) £799
(B) £899
(C) £949
(D) something else?

I'm guessing "D". There aren't any Staples in the UK AFAIK, so shipping & VAT might drive the price up just a bit...

Really want one but TOO EXPENSIVE!!!

This is meant to be a serious iPad for working on. Hence the higher specs and prices.

I know I'm just pointing out that finally they made a rational decision to not offer a 16GB option... If only the iPad Pro sets a precedent on Apple's future storage choices for other iPads and the iPhone

There are plenty of Staples stores around the UK. I'd expect their prices to match Apple UK when the release is announced.

After the release date, i'm expecting people to make post about, "it's just another iPad."

I doubt it, but I'm curious to see if any stores will have any special Black Friday deals a couple days later.

Can't answer that, but I've seen sales on Staples gift cards, for example getting $100 for $85. That would make for a great deal.

So, my bad. My only recent UK trips since '97 have been to Belfast/Derry/Antrim/Ballycastle for business and stay in Bushmills and Newtownabbey with friends. I only connect in London, haven't been on the big island for a visit since '94, and I was looking for pubs back then, not Post-Its or staplers. So, I'll just offer that there aren't any Staples in the part of the UK that I travel to (that I've seen). Sláinte!
