Microsoft launched the iPad buying program

Yes, when I saw this news, I myself thought that I had read something wrong. Among other things, today is not the 1st of April, but only Friday, the 13th . Nobody should joke. It turned out, indeed, Microsoft has launched a program "taking iPad from the public." However, in exchange for the device, the user does not receive money, but a gift card for a certain amount (at least $ 200). An iPad, 2, 3, or 4 generations, should not be very worn out.



The promotion is available only offline, no online deals. And only in the USA and Canada, so if you live in another country, and were going to raft your tablet of the Redmond corporation, you will have to cancel this intention.

Needless to say the action of unprecedented generosity is not just. Microsoft hopes that after receiving the bonus coupon, the former owner of the iPad will go and buy a Surface tablet. It is worth noting that the prices for Surface RT have already been reduced by 30%, and the cost of Surface Pro has been reduced by $ 100.



In addition, at the hearing of the event, dedicated to the release of Surface 2 and Surface Pro 2, which is scheduled for September 23. Pass all this will be in New York.



And yes, the action of exchanging an iPad for a gift card ends on October 27, so that until that time there is an opportunity to exchange one tablet for another, with a surcharge, if there is such a desire.
