Vous pensiez pouvoir vous procurer le dernier bijoux de la Pomme fin avril, navré mais vous allez devoir prendre votre mal en patience…
Victime de son succès, la tablette Apple dont les ventes ont rapidement dépassé le seuil des 500.000 unités ne sera en effet pas disponible en France avant fin mai (normalement…).
Les tarifs (€) de l’iPad seront pour leur part communiqués le 10 mai prochain, date à laquelle les pré-commandes seront ouvertes.
Apple today released the following statement:
Although we have delivered more than 500,000 iPads during its first week, demand is far higher than we predicted and will likely continue to exceed our supply over the next several weeks as more people see and touch an iPad™. We have also taken a large number of pre-orders for iPad 3G models for delivery by the end of April.
Faced with this surprisingly strong US demand, we have made the difficult decision to postpone the international launch of iPad by one month, until the end of May. We will announce international pricing and begin taking online pre-orders on Monday, May 10. We know that many international customers waiting to buy an iPad will be disappointed by this news, but we hope they will be pleased to learn the reason—the iPad is a runaway success in the US thus far.
