    Hi folks,

    Looking to replace ipad 1 with an ipad air 2.old ipad had gone slow and updates are not available for a long while...anyway I have 2 questions....firstly, is it still the latest greatest tablet even though it's been out a little while now (is there a replacement imminent?)?secondly...post christmas sales are obviously kicking off...can I expect any discounts?I've scanned the usually Hugh Street retailers on line and nothing.whats people's experience?will they discount if asked?I know there's never more than maybe 5 or 10% maybe but better than nothing.....cheers...

    Amazon's UK site have a good deal on iPads, or keep an eye out on adverts.ie for unwanted Christmas presents.

    Amazon do deliver to Ireland. And for any Amazon seller who doesn't you could use parcel motel.

    When I looked previously it seemed that Amazon don't really sell them direct but instead fulfill the order for a 3Rd party that won't deliver to Ireland but I'll look again...or use parcel motel (for the 1St time!)

    Check the usual, power city, currys/PC World, Harvey Norman etc
    There's never really much of a discount but you may get 10% max off one.

    Or as others have said, adverts from a trusted seller.

    Yeah some of the Amazon sellers don't deliver to Ireland. Get the extended liability just in case of using parcel motel.
