And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Wow - that's actually semi-reasonable.

Of course that's for the 16GB model, I assume.


Kristen - Jan 27, 2010 9:20:35 am PST #12624 of 25505

It's for the 16 GB WiFi only version.

ETA: The 64 GB with 3G is $829.

$499 for 16GB, 32Gb for $599, 64GB for $699.

3G models cost an extra $130.
