发帖数: 60932 | 1 I propose that besides cutting upwards of 10% off the price of an iPad2 for
who hadn't considered finding a tax-free option, simply finding a store
that is simply shipping iPads without a month-long wait is "good" to those
who were going to buy anyway. Along those lines, I collected all the useful
data I could on the subject(s). Please post your reported ETA/wait times
in the wiki below!

Those buying from AAFES should be able to save another 10% off as well when
you sign up with a star card, I believe the 10% off applies to any purchases
you make for the first day. (credit to Greatbam)

(best line: "it needs to be said: the iPad 2 isn't just the best tablet on
the market, it feels like the only tablet on the market. As much as we'd
like to say that something like the Xoom has threatened Apple's presence in
this space, it's difficult (if not impossible) to do that.")

etc...If this post picks up anywhere near the traction of the original "no
tax" iPad2 thread, and you are just a casual reader wondering how such a
basic informational thread could have dozens or hundreds of posts. let me
remind you the obligatory flow-chart for the vast majority of the SD
community:
Is it an apple product? --> Thumbs down!--> Bitch about price --> Bitch
about missing features #1 through #500 --> insult anyone who disagrees
with you
