iPad 3g: iPad 3g release date, price, ipad jailbreak and ipad review – Apple Tablet Finally Launches in US. After months of anticipation, the Apple iPad has arrived in stores across the US. Expected to sell out VERY quickly, people started lining up late last afternoon to be the first in the Apple store to pick up an iPad.
Those who are a bit wiser opted to pre-order the product. Those individuals anxiously awaited the mailman this morning to deliver their sleek and shiny new tablet.
Those that didn’t make it into the store before they sold out or didn’t pre order their products will have to wait until at around April 12th. Those that desire an iPad 3g will have to wait until “late April” for the availability of their units. The 3g connectivity will cost an additional $14.99 to $30 per month, depending on which plan is chosen. Read more

Disney discovered an opening weekend in “Wonderland” the likes of which had never been seen before, taking in an eye-popping $210.3 million around the world in its debut.
Director Tim Burton’s 3-D adaptation of the classic fairy tale, starring Johnny Depp, sold a studio-estimated $116.3 million worth of tickets Friday through Sunday in the U.S. and Canada. Even accounting for ticket-price inflation, that’s the biggest-ever opening in the first quarter of the year, easily beating the record of $83.8 million set by “The Passion of the Christ” in 2004.
In the 40 foreign territories where it opened simultaneously, “Alice in Wonderland” collected an additional $94 million. That’s also a record for the biggest foreign opening in the winter or spring, Disney said. The studio estimated that those countries represent about 60% of the movie’s international potential, with major markets such as France and Japan still to come. Read more
