iPad Cash Purchases Now Available


For the first time you can now buy an iPad with cash, unitl now it was credit or debit card only.

Up until today you could only buy an iPad using a credit or debit card, this was to prevent people from buying more than 2 per person, due to demand constraints. You can now rejoice in the fact that you can iPads in cash as long as you set up your iTunes account is store to register the tablet computer to yourself.


This all seems to have come about due a lady by the name of Diane Campbell, who had saved up her money only to be refused an iPad when she turned up to an Apple store with cash rather than credit.

Upon leaving without a shiny new tablet computer, she emailed Steve Jobs to complain, saying the following: "Mr. Jobs, give a sister a break", "I'm not going to sell my iPad", To which Apple responded by announcing cash payment options from now on. Not only did they listen to Diane, they even gave her a complimentary iPad for her trouble.

Kudos to Steve and the gang!
