It has been our tradition to compare prices of Apple products in various Asia-Pacific countries in order to determine the country that offers the cheapest iPhone or iPad.

Go to various Apple Stores in the Philippines and all of them — yes, all of them — would tell you that right now, there are no more iPad 2 units that are available for sale. They’d usually say that new stocks are arriving in 2-3 weeks’ time but for over a month already, they have been saying the exact same thing.
I don’t want to wait anymore so I decided to go for the next best alternative: the computer and tech shops that sell Apple gadgets. They’re not really considered as “official” Apple Stores but they are duly-authorized as distributors so it’s still pretty much safe to buy from them.

Steve Jobs’ announcement of the launch of the new Apple iPad 2 last March 2 sent the Apple stock (Stock Code: AAPL) rising 0.80% to $352.12 at the close of the announcement day.
A total of 15 million Apple iPad units were sold during the first nine months of its release, according to Apple CEO Steve Jobs. That’s more than the total number of all other tablet PC sales combined.
But Apple seems bent on dominating that market further. Less than a year after the first Apple iPad was released, here comes a thinner, lighter and superbly faster upgrade: the Apple iPad 2.
