The release of the iPad 2, brings an end to the very successful 1st generation iPad. But it seems like Apple did have quite a bit in stock, and it's why they are offering iPad's on clearance, through the Apple site. But I am sure you can also pick one up in stores. The clearance iPad pricing is marked down $100 from the original price, so iPad's start as low as $399!

If there are any seniors, children, who don't really care about not having a dual core processor or the camera's. The 1st generation iPad, still offers a ton of features! And at a price of $399, you can't go wrong. At the moment the iPad 1st generation model will still continue to receive updates, so you are set. It's still a solid piece of technology that won't go outdated too quickly.

I am seeing many people actually taking this opportunity to pick the old iPad up for a great price! And for those that bought the iPad 1st generation, 14 days prior to the announcement of the new model, Apple is giving you a $100 refund. Just bring in your iPad and receipt into the store.

Great chance to get an awesome device for an amazing price!
