Apple Banning Customers From Purchasing iPads

[grim386]

Customers reportedly have a "lifetime limit" of two iPads

In rather bizarre news, a handful of reports are trickling in from across the country that Apple employees are turning away would-be iPad buyers, claiming they've reached a "lifetime limit".

A medical student who blogs under the name Protocol Snow relates one such encounter. He had been purchasing a couple iPads a day to ship to friends overseas. He was careful never to exceed the per-customer publicized limit of 2 units.

I heard Leo Laporte and Cnet's gadget testers also got there orders canceled cause they already purchased Ipads.

instant work arounds

• Go to another store
• Send your friend in with the money to buy it
• Wear a disguise

unless you have to register all of them

Yea but why would you have to go through all that just to spend your hard earn money? its not like they losing money from selling them with a data contract and you take them else where.

Steve is the devil i say!
