The corresponding iPad would cost another $100, or $729 total for the 3G/4G iPad,Ĭompared to the Kindle Fire HD 8.9 4GB model's $399.) If you give an iPad the add'l 16 GB that the Kindle Fire 8.9" 4G model already has, Making the Apple iPad cost $629 for the smaller 16 GB storage space model,Īnd that's before the cost of a monthly cellular data plan for an iPad. (Remember that the $499 iPad has only 16 GB of storage and NO 3G/4G capability.Īlso, Apple charges an additional $130 to get that 3G/4G hardware capability at all, 32 GB 4G cellular network version starts at an incredible $399 ($100 lower) 16 GB WiFi version now starts at $269 ($30 lower). With the expansion of this WiFi 8.9" model to Europe and Japan, Amazon was able to take advantage of the usual economies of scale in production.
