US Demand for iPad Causes Worldwide Delay

Tuesday, April 27, 2010Apple

It seems that the Americans simply cannot get enough of the brand new Apple touch screen tablet.

The iPad was originally set to be launched all over the world at the same time but for some yet to be explained reason, the launch was moved to late April. The US launch pushed through last April 3, however, recent reports now state that instead of the rest of the world getting the Apple iPad late this month, the launch has been set to late May.

The reason for the launch delay has been acknowledged by Apple, it turns out that the company is unable to meet with the strong demands for the tablet and as such, is in the middle of trying to keep up with demand. Though some are saying that there is no real US-based demand as the increase in orders is due to people who are planning to have the iPad shipped outside of the US.

Still, if current reviews and reports about the tablet are to be based upon, it is apparent that

This tablet is going to be worth the wait. The user interface is reminiscent of the iPod Touch though it is a lot nicer to stare at. As a web browser, the device is able to deliver the internet experience in a way that no keyboard and mouse can. eBook readers are also praising the iPad for its well made reader application as well as its support for other eReaders such as the Kindle app which allows users to easily switch apps.

Aside from that, the iPad also has games, maps, apps, photos, media playback and more. Many consider it as the perfect tech gadget to have this year.
