Chinese Government Approves New iPad for Sale

by

China's Quality Certification Center has approved iPad model number A1416 -- that of the new iPad -- for sale in that country.

China is an incredibly important market for Apple, with the company posting huge growth in the region in recent years. The approval, which was actually issued last week, comes as Apple CEO Tim Cook appeared in China for meetings with Apple partners.

How ironic that China, of all places, has a "Quality Certification Center" to approve products...

You think it's really quality they look for? I'd imagine it's more along the lines of a "Doesn't connect to the unfiltered internet certification center".

Does this mean that I can bring my iPad to China without paying the 20% tax when I head there in two months??? :eek:

don't think so, they did not change any tax rules.

Apple is a big part of the growing industry in China. I never thought China would disaprove the sale.
