Earlier today Apple announced the iPad 2, which will be start shipping March 11th.  Meanwhile, they’ve lowered the price on remaining original iPads.  And now you can get a refurbished iPad from Apple (meaning practically brand new condition) with a one-year warranty for only $349.  This is the wi-fi only version (for me that’s a good thing because you don’t need a 2-year contract with a cell phone company to enjoy it) and includes 16GB of storage.

The new iPad 2 will be thinner and 1.3 lbs (instead of 1.5), have a faster processor and front and rear cameras, but the wi-fi 16GB model (the new version of this refurbished model) will run you $499.  This is a great deal for an iPad, so if you’ve been thinking about one, here’s your chance to save some $$$.  Get it here:  http://bit.ly/TekChic0304
