iPad Finally Officially Arrives in Beijing

The moment Apple fans have been waiting for has finally arrived! After making its debut last March in the US, the iPad is set to officially reach China.

Over the past few months the Beijinger has blogged about possible release dates, knockoff aPad’s, and iPad’s on the grey market. Chances are, then, if you’re a true gadget fan you’ll already have an iPad in your arsenal.

If you haven’t, you’ll be able to purchase them from the Apple store in Sanlitun from this Friday, September 17, starting at RMB 3,988 for the 16GB model. Expect long lines and quickly sold out stock.

The Shanghaiist today also reported that the iPhone 4 may be available as soon as next week.
