DD wants one for her birthday.

Can be the older model.

Wheres the cheapest?

I believe Costco had an offer on. Is it worth joining for it or can I better or equal it?

    Now that's lucky. I received an email a few days ago saying that someone had some available, apparently at half price.

    I have copied the whole email below

    Sorry if it's not what you are looking for:)

    Hi All,

    If you are interested in getting an iPad I know someone who can get hold of them through a contact. These are legit, not off the back of a truck; they are from a cancelled Hospital contract due to Government cutbacks. The numbers are limited - he has twenty iPads going for less than half price so it's first come first served. He has already sold one (pic is below so you can see what you are getting). Get back to me as quick as you can if you want one. Full spec is below.

    Apple are selling refurbished ones (both 1 and 2) at a 'reasonable' price and they come with a 1 year Apple warranty.

    Just go to their website and look towards bottom left of screen

    I think currently for the ipad 2 it's apple refurb cheapest currently. BUT ebuyerexpress on Ebay is one to watch as they often sell Ipad2 16gb for £290 new (not refurb) but they currently don't have any, and their site shows it at £339.98

    ebuyerexpress is Ebuyer.com on ebay, so pretty trustworthy. If you can wait, it is worth waiting and seeing if they come cheap again.
