さあ、Appleが先週金曜日に、実店舗とオンラインの両方でiPad 2を発売しました。何千人もの人々が自分用に急いで買いに来たため、全ての在庫はすぐに売り切れました（驚くことではありません）。
Appleの米国オンラインストアでは、当初はわずか3〜5日でしたが、翌日にはすぐに2〜3週間に更新され、現在ではオンラインで注文した場合、最大3〜4週間遅延しています。
アメリカにいる友人が、ベストバイの一店舗（そこでも在庫は限られていた）で約6時間も並んだそうです。また、人々が在庫を買い占めている可能性もあります（Appleの購入者あたり2点制限ポリシーにもかかわらず）。これはeBayで売ったり、他の国に持ち帰って倍の価格で売るためかもしれません。私はまだ自分のものが届くのを待っていますが、幸いなことに25日に到着する予定です。
単に気になったのですが、ここにいる方の中で、同じものを購入された方や、買うことを考えている方はいますか？（非正規のルートからのものでも構いません）。1〜2週間後には、グリーンヒルズがiPad 2で賑わっていると思います。
Nope. I don’t see the point in a 3rd-world country such as ours, and I definitely don’t see the point over a netbook/notebook.
I will, if i can sell my ipad 1 at a reasonable price.
Definitely Yes!!! :)
Yes when it becomes available here.
I’d go for HTC Flyer!
A better choice than current tablets today. Even motorola xoom is trashed
Em definitely getting the Ipad2. Not so sure though where I can get one at the soonest possible time. I can’t wait for its availability in the Philippines. Masyadong late na dating sa Pinas. Anyone with connections or contacts? Thanks.
NOPE, im happy with my ipad1 if i got money to spare, ill buy galaxy tab 10.1 same speck as ipad2 and with flash.
With the current selection of tablets we have and will soon be available here in the Philippines, the Ipad2 is the only tablet to go. Right now, we have the Galaxy tab 10.1, Xoom, and Ipad2. These three sits mostly around the same price, with Ipad2 being in the cheapest with the 16gb wifi version.
If you want a tablet, wait for the ipad2. Buying a XOOM or a Galaxy tab at this point in time is, IMHO, a big waste with what Ipad2 offers.
No for now, I’m still happy with my iPad 1st gen.
the specs of the iPad 2 are definitely impressive.

if i have the moolah i’ll get one
I am still observing the price war but I am not getting iPad instead I will get Android honeycomb tablets…
Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

Price war? Seriously, are we still talking about it?
hmmmp. im not interested about apple products, its uneconomically sound to buy one
If I have the money right now then I’ll buy one.
probably… pero budget parin ang main consideration kasi you have to spend wisely these-days. hmm ok din naman ang honeycomb tablets specifically ang Xoom i haven’t tried the new UI but hopefully better than previous versions of android. in terms of iOS vs android ang iOS is very user-friendly ang android medyo for techies or power-users. pero if you want full control of your iOS device there’s a thing called jailbreaking. and if hindi kapa satisfied sa freedom na binibigay ng android you can root it and install a Mod android OS. to say this is crap and that is crap is kinda stupid. lahat tayo may different preferences. To each his own…^_^
Nope, sir. Mababaw lang naman kaligayahan ko, I’m happy enough with my Archos 70 8GB. Wifi only but tethers well with my dumbphone (Samsung Shark2 S5550) if needed.
Definitely not. I don’t want to be tied up to the iSheep ecosystem. Android equals freedom.
Ill wait till Q3 or so before deciding on which tablet to buy. I’ve got a feeling there will be more interesting stuff then.
no im not getting it. im waiting for a meego tablet
So here is what you’re waiting for, grab it while it is still hot, whew! http://iloveyou-mydear.blogspot.com/
i think i’m not.
I’ll wait for the release of BB Playbook. then, I’ll decide.
Apple did not make the SGX543MP2 – even LG or Nokia can use that. Since the same chip will be used in NGP (four cores, so I heard), I bet that the GPU performance is really that good for a mobile device.
I am more of a producer than a consumer. A good desktop (I am not mobile) is all I need for production and a cheap enough Android mobile for communication (synchs well with a Google account), casual browsing and gaming. So far, the only use I can have for a tablet is for reading documents and ebooks but there is a Kindle for that. So no – no tablets for me in general. (Subject to change in the future depending on what will the tablets offer. :P)
Ipad 2 beats Motorola Xoom running Android 3.0 in benchmark tests by a LARRRRRRRRGE margin:
I thought Tegra 2 was strong, but I guess, Ipad2’s PowerVR SGX 543MP2 is much stronger.
Kudos to Steve Job and team for raising the bar higher when it comes to tablets!
Nope. Unless Steve Job removes the chain (read: iTunes) that binds his devices and adds flash and then allow divx/xvid playback then I’d go for it.
yep, if i can afford it hehehe..but 4 now only in my dreams..
Nope, I won’t get one. If ever I’ll be given some cash to buy the a gadget, I’d get a 4.3″ android smartphone. I’m not a tablet fan. :|
ndi… may ipod touch n ko, ska prang ms mganda ang mga android powered tablets, ms mdaming features, may flash p.
No for me, maybe If Jobs changed his mind on flash maybe I’ll consider just like he did on camera’s on the 1st issue of this device.
Yup, will get one.
Definitely, I’ll buy one. Sana lang dumating na siya ng mas maaga. Paging Apple! Hope it won’t take til December before dumating ang ipad2 dito. Helloooooooo! Magkakaroon dito ng December tapos by March may bago na naman?? Seriously, wtf.
hindi
Sir Yuga,
How can I get an iPad 2?
I tried the online stor, but I guess it’s only available in the US.
How were you able to purchase yours?
yup will get one, will use it for testing when i start developing mobile apps.
Ah, basta. Hintay ko iPad 2. Kailan ba darating sa ‘Pinas ‘yan, kuya. At ako ay bibili.
yup definitely. im ready and waiting. im getting the 64gb wifi only
How much official price? sa greenhills its 40k, 16G wifi only. taga naman ata. 499 dollars lang sa US alam ko.

Nope! pass ako jan, By September meron nang iPad 3. hehe
I will definitely buy one!
astig (LANG) talaga ang apple products. but i would still go for honeycomb / blackberry tablets. i’m too techie for IOS
I’ll buy after a year siguro. By then, the ipad 2 is much cheaper. :)
Yes il buy one. waiting for it for all eternity!!! Steve Jobs is the MAN!!!!!!
mukhang bigger form factor lang to sa ipod touch.. still without flash.. i’m waiting for more android gingerbread tablet..
If my budget can handle it. Right now, I can’t afford Ipad 1…so how would I buy Ipad 2…but I am planning to get Ipad 1 (I am saving for it right now).
But probably if Ipad 2 came in the country when I have enough money for Ipad 1…probably I’ll save up for more to get Ipad 2. :-)
Also I am waiting for feedbacks regarding Ipad 2.
Perhaps, if I convince my parents. :)
Im thinking of buying one for reading books and bible but dont know when it I should it be, iPad2 or next release.
0949*******…Apple products are pieces of shits
If and only if affordable
the tablet craze is in heat, am not going for the form bandwagon. its not practical.
