14 DAY TRIAL // First-generation iPads are abundant still, with Apple listing attractive price cuts for multiple refurbished configurations of the post-PC device starting at $349.
The offerings at Apple’s Special Deals section fluctuate, making it difficult to pinpoint the moment for the best purchase. But that’s what we’re here for.
We constantly watch the Apple Special Deals area up close, and today we’ve spotted a number of price offerings that we believe you shouldn’t miss.
The catalog lists the base WiFi configuration with 16GB of flash for $349, a $50 price cut which just a few months ago would have been $150 (prior to Apple’s official price drop for first-generation units).
An even bigger saving is the Refurbished iPad with Wi-Fi 32GB. It costs $429, or $70 less.
Moving on to the Refurbished iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G 16GB, customers get an $80 discount - $449.
Think Apple can slash the price even more? Check out the Refurbished iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G 32GB, and the Refurbished iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G 64GB.
Attractively priced at $529 and $629 respectively, the first-generation tablets actually save you a lot more than $100, if you don’t care much about the cameras and the extra CPU power found on the iPad 2.
Apple last listed $100 discounts on iPads weeks ago.
We believe Cupertino still has a winner with the original iPad, making these hundred-dollar discounts more than noteworthy for those who are trying to decide on a tablet for web surfing, email, business applications, movie watching, and other forms of entertainment and work on the go.
Far from being obsolete, the original iPad supports iOS 5, the forthcoming major release from Apple that packs over 200 extra features.
With 10 hours of battery life, WiFi and 3G connectivity and of course the world’s best mobile OS, the original Apple iPad remains a must-have for every gadget lover.
