Apple will be offering two types of iPad, one with WiFi and one with WiFi, GPS chip and 3G connection built-in. The price range of the WiFi only iPad will start from US$499 for the lowest spec, while the 3G iPad will start from about $650.

Apart from offering a full web browsing experience, apps, and game playing feature, the Apple iPad will go head to head with Amazon's kindle in the e-book selling department as it introduces its iBookstore.
