O2 not selling iPad 2, so who is?

iPad 2

O2 has confirmed it will not sell the iPad 2, but it will be offering tariffs for the soon-to-be-released Apple device.

"Although we will not be selling iPad 2 with subsidy, O2 micro-sims with our great value iPad tariffs are still available for customers who have purchased the device elsewhere," an O2 spokesperson said.

So far, the only confirmed iPad 2 seller is Orange and T-Mobile's joint venture Everything Everywhere.

"We can confirm that Everything Everywhere plans to offer the iPad 2 when it is made available later this month on both Orange UK and T-Mobile UK," an Everything Everywhere spokesperson said.

"More details will be announced in due course."

At the time of publication, neither Vodafone nor 3 had confirmed whether they would be pushing the iPad 2.

Elsewhere, Apple has decided to cut the price of the original iPad by 100 on its website, with a note to say the deal is only whilst stocks last.

The cheapest version of the iPad 1 can now be snapped up for 329.

Apple announced the latest iteration of the iPad yesterday as well as iOS 4.3, which will be released in a week's time.
