InfoMaxx selling iPad 2 for Php36,500

Spotted just this morning are a couple of new iPad 2’s being sold at local store, InfoMaxx Megamall. Their grey market price — a cool Php36,500 a pop for a 16GB WiFi model.

There’s been a really short supply of iPad 2 nowadays and even the Apple Online Store is delaying shipments by as much as 4 to 5 weeks from date order.

The entry level iPad 2 retails for $499 (might go for Php23,999 when it officially arrives in the Philippines). The Php36,500 price is primarily driven by low supply and huge demand.

Anybody will to pay premium price just to get your hands on the first few iPad 2 in the Philippines?

    InfoMAXX: maxximum profit. Only the impatient ones will fall for this. For that price, one could already get the iPad 2 32GB wifi + 3G variant.

    galaxy tab is a tablet, while arc is still under the smartphone category. depende sa needs mo. kung priority mo eh telephony, go for arc. tab has tel features, but is too big for casual use.

      pre depende talaga syo yan eh. size ang pinakamalaking difference nila.
      ang arc madaling maibulsa.
      ang tab medyo malaki. kung nagccommute ka, mahirap gamitin yan.

      go for arc, original design good hardware and software specs and if u have been in sony event last week the best ang arc sa design at eye catcher talaga

      Some motor things to think about: the galaxy tab is h
      just an enlarged android phone. It won’t get the update to the dedicated tablet android OS (honeycomb). Also, you NEED the Bluetooth headset to make calls (unless of course you don’t mind using the speakerphone in public). :)
