Guys,

I have the opportunity to get two more ipads next week, and was hoping to get some advice. Should I sell my 32gb and opt for the 3G option? Or should I just stick with my 32gb wifi and sell the two ipads on bid or buy or something? Also, which models do you guys think I should bring in? And what do you think would be a fair profit to make on them?

Thanks!

Good questions all! I tried to compute an optimal solution to your quandary but there are simply too many variables! It depends ... on how much profit you can make, how much do you dig your iPad do you really want the 3G version etc etc. Also nobody knows even what the 3G iPad will be like, and how we will use it in SA.

But yeah if you can sell iPads at R5k-6k I think there will be strong demand.

Ipad + tax + customs (if any) + 20%??? Do you think I'd have any takers?

Well how much are we talking here? Because I would be happy to pay R5k for a 16gb iPad.

Steve Jobs thanks you for the cash. Please buy more. I would recommend you buy one of each for each room of your house. So 1 of 16GB, 1 of 32 GB and one of 64, then next week buy 1 of 3G models - for a total of 6 iPads. You never know, if one were to go offline - the world would come to an end.
