I Give My Son an Ipad 2 for His Birthday

March 27th, 2011

Advance Loan BlogI take a Payday Loan to raise the money for his birthday gift
My wife says I’m crazy, buy I say, ‘why not’? Money is money and I want to give my son a nice gift. A Payday Loan is a legit way of finding money when I’m flat broke.

My son is thrilled
“Thanks, Mom and Dad! What a great gift. I’m off to the Apple shop downtown right now!” Then we received more messages: Hundreds of customers lined up outside Apple stores in Australia and New Zealand on Friday for the international launch of the iPad 2, which has flown off the shelves in the U.S. leaving the company struggling to meet demand. “But managed to see the iPad 2, a thinner and faster version that features two cameras for video chat,” said my son, after his first visit to the Apple store.

The kick-off
The next message read: “Sales kicked off at 08:00. Apple staff were dressed in the company’s blue branded shirts and handed out trays of sandwiches to those in the queue, some of whom had bedded down on blankets overnight before being awoken by bright sunshine. The retail price in Australia starts at $568, against $499 in the United States.

Huge numbers
The first iPad, which went on sale a year ago, sold 500,000 units in the first week and crossed the 1 million unit mark in 28 days. Nearly 15 million iPads were sold in nine months of 2010, two or three times as many as analysts had predicted. Apple Chief Executive Steve Jobs said on Tuesday the company was “working hard to build enough iPads for everyone.” Fiona Martin, a spokeswoman for Apple in Australia, declined to comment on whether there was enough stock to meet demand. “We don’t comment on speculation, we’ve got plenty down there for all those folk that are in the queue.”

He got one
After a chaotic morning, my son returned home with his new toy. I will buy one for myself next month using another Payday Loan and we will be able to use them to connect with each other no matter where we are. We will even be able to see each other and the grandchildren.

One small problem
Several key components in the new version of Apple’s popular iPad come from Japan, including the battery and the flash memory used to store music and video on the device, according to IT research house iSuppli. Analysts say it’s too early to gauge the extent of component supply shortages, while the wait time on delivery of online orders has shortened to 3-4 weeks in recent days from as high as 6-7 weeks, suggesting component shortages have not reached critical levels.

I can wait
If there is a supply problem because of the shortage of parts from Japan, that’s okay by me. I’ll wait. A Payday Loan from AdvanceLoan.net is always available and they will be there for me whenever I decide to buy my iPad 2.
