I won’t be getting one at that price – I’m going for the Archos 7 Android (possibly TWO) at Apple UK’s dumb pricing regime.

At these prices and Apple’s price drop strategy I won’t be early adopting. i’ll wait until Sept when prices drop! Cool device but there is no incentive to early adopt…

it’s a bit overpriced – the largest sales tax in the US is 11.5% (some part of Illinois – and in many places it’s much lower or even non-existent), so there’s another 6% to 13% gap right there, and depending on what state you live and where you buy from it’s feasible that you can order from an out-of-state dealer and pay no sales tax whatsoever.

If true, this would be better than the estimated pricing that MacWorld.co.uk gave – at least for the 32GB and 64GB models – http://www.macworld.co.uk/mac/news/index.cfm?ne... (£388, £510 and £591)

It’s not much overpriced, the American prices are without VAT

Interesting, if true that’s a pretty reasonable deal as, at current exchange rate the iPad would cost £326, but then when you add VAT on top brining it to £383.05.. just a few quid under the anticipated £389 price. When you take into account the fact it costs Apple slightly more to ship the items to the UK, distribute them, etc, they’ll probably make slightly less profit per item here than in the US.

At that price I won’t be buying one immediately, leave it for 2 months and the price will come down, just like it did with the iPhone!
