Cut-rate Apple: iPhones for nine bucks, iPads for 70? | Apple - CNET News

Cut-rate Apple: iPhones for nine bucks, iPads for 70? | Apple - CNET News: As gadget blog electronista informs us, AT&T has dropped the price of a refurbished iPhone 3GS to a mere $9.

And imagine my surprise when I discovered that the iPad--the iPad 2 no less--could be had for a mere 70 smackers. At Sears. Wow.

Alas, the iPad price, as Business Insider makes clear, was a mistake, and the lucky few who jumped on the "deal" and speedily ordered one online, won't be getting the devices after all. Not at that price anyway--they'll have to plunk down $744.99.
