News has just come out today about the release date of the new 3rd generation iPad for Thailand. According to the website siampod.com, Apple has set the date of Friday 27th April 2012 for the official release of the new iPad in Thailand. This matches what we heard a few weeks ago that the iPad would be released in Thailand after Songkran. There is no official word yet but it looks like that on that date you will be able to buy the new iPad at all iStudio stores. It is also likely that the three main mobile phone companies (True, DTAC and AIS) will also be selling them but they haven’t released their strategy yet. In addition, we are still waiting for Apple Online Store to release details which should be out by about next week. There are no official prices yet, but if you are thinking of buying a new iPad at the moment, don’t do it yet until you see the prices.
That’s fantastic news, I fly out to Bangkok on the 27th April. Hopefully the queues will be reasonable. I leave again on the 6th May and with previous rumours of the date being 11th May or later I was worried I’d miss it.
The date was officially confirmed by Apple US yesterday.
Do you have any more ideas about the prices here in Thailand ?
I think the prices for the new iPad in Thailand will be almost same as in siampod.com
