When will the iPad PRO LTE be available for purchase?

Any idea about worldwide availability? I am looking for sim lock free version.

Nobody knows yet. General thought is pre-orders on Monday alongside the Apple TV and then general availability in the first week of November.

They would have announced it by now if the pre-orders were starting on Monday.

Hence why I started the post with "Nobody knows yet."

Okay not attacking you just pointing that fact out.

Apple hasn't even "announced" that Apple TV 4 would go up for preorder...it was Tim Cook who mentioned it while talking about the product. Anything is possible at this point.

If Tim said it, Apple PR might as well have said it. He's more tightlipped when it comes to spilling release dates then the PR department.

based on recent experience, when apple says available in ***(month), it usually starts to sell in the last 10 days of the month.
so goes to apple TV, apple Watch,

The point I'm making is that just because Tim didn't specifically mention the iPad Pro pre-order in the context of a conversation regarding Apple TV, does not mean that the iPad Pro isn't going up for pre-order at the same time.

All iPads are carrier unlocked, by the way.

I thought the sim was open until you choose a carrier. But you can always get a new sim.

I understand that, but you said "Apple hasn't even "announced" that Apple TV 4 would go up for preorder" specifically targeting the Apple TV. You never mentioned the iPad Pro, except to say that "anything is possible". I'd bet on Tim that Apple TV will go on sale Monday, but remember everyone iPad Pro isn't due until November. Apple TV was billed with an October release. I wouldn't expect preorders on the iPad Pro for at least another week, probably two, especially because of Apple's track history with just giving a month or seasonal release date.
