T-1 Day for Latin American, Chinese launch of iPad

Apple has announced that the iPad will be officially launched in five Latin American countries and China tomorrow, September 17, 2010.

The über-popular iPad will be available in Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru starting tomorrow. In China, the Wi-Fi model is launching, while the Wi-Fi + 3G is listed on the online Chinese Apple Store as "Coming Soon."

TUAW also received a number of tips this morning that U.S. electronics retailer Micro Center is beginning to sell iPads in a number of locations. Recent rumors also point to mega-retailers Target and Walmart selling the iPad before the critical Christmas buying season.

With the influx of new markets and retailers, it's a good thing Apple is ramping up production of iPads.

Here in Colombia prices for the iPad 16 GB will be almost on par with the USA prices, the other models are a bit pricey. As for the data plans, for now carriers are mum, tomorrow will be the day one to see if everything is clear or the chance to cry on.

The cost of 3G data is so onerous in Latin American coutries, that not even the hyper rich could afford iPad usage

Here in Argentina the device arrives 5 months later and 400us$ more expensive. Taking into account here 1us$ is 4ar$ is tooo much money guys.
Not to mention the roumours about a new iPad to be released by end of the year (with camera maybe?).
Should I buy an "close to be old" hardware at that price?
