If you were trying to score an iPad 2 this weekend chances are very high that you didn’t get one. I went to future shop on 26th,  and returned home empty handed.

Apple, one of the innovative and largest computer companies in the world, who always bond their cool products with customer loyalty and satisfaction are depressing a huge amount of  potential and current customer now!

Some apple zealot support that it is not apple’s fault for two reasons.

One reason is Asian fad of apple’s product. On the first day when Apple launched its products to stores in United States, Asian gangs came and and bought all the products before other customers did. Since there is a personal purchase limit for five each, they even pay a few visitors tips to purchase Ipad 2 for them. So they can sell it in Asian later with higher price. More serious thing is that this is not just happened in one store. Many customers are complaining about this situation and Apple should quickly response to it. I think Apple should launch its product to Asian countires as soon as possible, especially China, where have the biggest population and potential customer in the world. Therefore, in order to stop those Asian gangs making products by “buy low sell high”. Apple should build up customer identification for Ipad 2 purchase and this is a great chance to collect customer information and improve their product.

Another reason is Japan got a earthquake and this broke the supply chain of Ipad 2, since Japanese produce 60% of electrical elements in the world. I think it is time that apple consider another chip companies to produce elements for them, since Japan is suffering both nuclear leaking and electric lacking crisis. This situation could not recover until a year long or even longer. Anyway, I hope this happening can be solved as fast as possible.
