Just days after both Apple and Radio Shack came to an agreement, the retailer will offer the Apple iPad 2 starting tomorrow, in 500 of its most heavily shopped locations. The sequel to Apple's highly successful tablet was launched in the U.S. earlier this month and was released in 25 countries yesterday as we reported.
Now that both sides have signed off on the deal, Radio Shack sent out a memo from company headquarters saying that the 500 stores that will sell the Apple iPad 2 already know that it is coming. Pricing for the device was not mentioned.
Seeing Apple products at Radio Shack is not something new. It has been about a year since the retailer started to sell the iPhone. Now those seeking the Apple iPad 2 can pick one up at the same time they run off to The Shack to buy some transistors or batteries.
