Mobile Today Gets Wind of iPad Price Tag
According to Kate O Flaherty, Senior Reporter for Mobile Today, the newly launched Apple iPad might be getting a price tag of a hefty £816 (which should be lesser if the device gets subsidized by a network operator).
It is a big price to pay for a ready to use net book.
Aside from the fact that the iPad is a lightweight device that is easy to use and hold, the fact that it is a piece of electronic hardware that requires little to no setting up is one of the main reasons why this tablet is very appealing.
No longer will you have to feel lazy about having to wait for your computer or laptop’s slow boot up screen when all you want to do is check on the latest updates on your Facebook page. No longer do you have to make do with the small 3 inch display reading the latest feeds on your mobile phone. The iPad is going to make net access a simple matter of picking up the tablet and tapping the screen; instant and easy.
With a price reaching to £800, is it worth it?
An average net book will set you back by about £400, but that is matter of preference and need. If you are not the type of person who would use a net book and consider desktop computers too much of a hassle to assemble and maintain, then the iPad is pretty much up your alley.
On the other hand, if you already have an iPod Touch and the iPhone, then the tablet may be a little to redundant to have in your household unless you do not already own a computer or a laptop.
