Retailer

Best Buy Co is offering a 30 percent discount on its current stock of Apple iPad 3 tablets, a spokeswoman for the world's largest consumer electronics chain said on Wednesday.

It does not matter what price they are, once someone buys them they are an Apple fan forever.

Enough said..

I surprised that nobody bothered to mention that the Apple iPad 3 is one generation old already as the current model is the iPad 4.

Hmmmm.....good of you to point that out, Dim. The iPad 4 was released two months ago and there are still warehouses full of iPad 3's that they're forced to give away. Looks like they weren't such a hot seller. Usually a product is cleared by the next release.

Looks like it's following the iPhone 4, they're giving all the leftover stock away almost free.
