Apple has just begun offering refurbished iPad 2 units in its online store, opening the way for modest price savings on available models. Discounts currently come in at only $50 off of pricing for brand-new units, and no low-end units are currently available.
The company has been offering refurbished first-generation iPads for some time, but it’s taken a while for the iPad 2 to show up. The savings are small compared to a new iPad, but Apple covers refurbished units with a full warranty and they’re also eligible for AppleCare coverage, so it’s a good way to save a bit of cash if you’re in the market for a new iPad.
