14 DAY TRIAL // Touching story coming from a guy named Jordan who bought an iPad 2 and engraved “will you marry me” on the tablet device, with high hopes that his girl would say yes as he took her to the largest tree in the world, kneeled down and proposed.
Published this past weekend, the story goes as follows:
I just wanted to share my excitement for Apple’s latest magical device bringing a little magic into my life! I stayed up all night to order my iPad with the inscription “Will You Marry Me?”
Received mine this Monday, Took my then-girlfriend, Jessica, up to the National Redwood Forrest in Northern CA.
After having to cross a river on a downed Redwood and dealing with the intermettant rain I found the largest tree in the world I kneeled down and gave it my best!
Whether it was something I said or “Apple’s Magic” in action she gushed and said YES, now give me my iPad!!
How can you miss when you combine love with adventure and top it off with Apple’s latest marvel? The answer: you can’t.
Congrats, Jordan! You handled it like a pro. Softpedia's Apple news editor wishes you both the best.
For those who aren’t aware of Apple’s free engraving program, it applies not only to the iPad, but iPods as well.
Customers can opt for this service as they check out when buying a device online, and they can choose one of multiple pre-composed lines, or make up their own, like Jordan did (as far as we know, Apple doesn’t have a simple ‘will you marry me’ template on offer’).
Apple’s service also includes free gift wrapping, for those wishing to hand the tablet as a standard gift, sealed, in-box.
iPad 2 was ceremoniously launched earlier this month featuring dual cameras, the powerful A5 chip, a thinner, more streamlined design, and the same 10-hour battery life and price tag as its predecessor.
