Apple has reduced the price of the first generation iPad by $100 in the US and is selling off the remaining stock, which is not very large, but is still available in Europe.

Proactors in the Czech Republic, specifically Datart a DTP shop they've already started this sale and you can get an iPad at an unbeatable price!
At kuptolevne.cz, prices start from NOK 8999 and postage is free ;)
My God, who would buy a number one now when there's a number two with 2 cores and 9x faster graphics, I'd happily pay the extra 3 thousand ;-) I was just wondering keynote and I highly recommend it!!!!
DAVIDSON: Maybe someone who won't use the performance of the new iPad and therefore it's better for them to save the three thousand. Or someone who wants to buy an iPad now, but will pay the nine thousand for it and then wait for the third generation...
By the way, as I look at the new generation in photos, I still like the first iPad more, and I also think that the older generation with a thicker body will hold better than the new thin tablet, which I think will cut into the palm of your hand - after all, it still weighs 600g... The ends of the cables will be half "bare" like the iPod touch and will not hold as much in the hand.onewhich. Thanks to the edges, the buttons will not be so easy to press. The speaker is on the back, on the flat part, which is covered when placed on a table, for example (and in my opinion not very nice - I have seen such a speaker on some Chinese tablet before...). ProAlthough I'll probably buy the iPad 2, I think the design (appearance and usability) has suffered compared to the first generation, and all because of 4-5 millimeters...
You're lying. The speaker "see" will go. And I like the design of the iPad 2 much more. It will definitely be an even bigger hit live. I have a fully charged iPad 1, but I will admit that the iPad 2 is better and go for it. Photos (mockups?) that leaked before the premiere: http://forum.iphone.cz/viewtopic.php?p=383341#p383341
7luke.com: Sorry about the speaker, I only realized it after writing. I saw some leaked fake photos of the iPad 2 and somehow the one with the speaker stuck in my memory. :)
Design is of course a completely subjective thing, I just wrote my opinion, but I still think that it won't be as comfortable to hold in your hands, because it has the same edges as the touch + the buttons won't be as easy to press as the first gen. + konewhich.
Of course, I may change my view of the design when I see it in person, but I like the iPad (1) both in photos and in person, whereas the second one not so much in photos and it probably won't change either...
