Apple's 128GB iPad Now on Sale

Apple added its new 128GB iPad to the Apple Store on Tuesday. The site promises any orders will ship in one to three days.
The pricey new device comes in two models: Wi-Fi only ($799) and Wi-Fi+LTE ($929). Previously, the 9.7-inch iPad with retina display was available only with 16GB, 32GB or 64GB of storage.
Apart from the increased memory, the new iPad is identical to the other models in the line, and customers can choose between two colors: black or white

When Apple debuted the third-generation iPad with retina display, many expressed concerns that apps that support the higher resolution would demand more memory, and that low-capacity models — especially the 16GB version — wouldn't be able to hold many retina apps. With a 128GB retina iPad, fears about inadequate storage are mitigated... for a price.
“With twice the storage capacity and an unparalleled selection of over 300,000 native iPad apps, enterprises, educators and artists have even more reasons to use iPad for all their business and personal needs,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, in a statement.

Following a circulation of rumors, Apple announced last week it would be introducing a 128 GB iPad with retina display to its product lineup. Despite its typical fanfare announcements, the company said in a press release it would be coming to stores in the near future.
