"There are now only 20 security guards, and at least 300 tomorrow to keep customers safe," he said.　　One of the security personnel told the first financial daily that all work was ready. They are only waiting for an electronic product. In this situation, besides Apple, who else? This is the scene of the afternoon of May 5 before the full release of iPad2 in mainland China.　　Starting 8 o'clock today, it will emerge as a mainstream it channel in the mainland. Prices are also clear.　　16G iPad2 price 3688 yuan, 32G for 4488 Yuan, 64G for 5288 yuan. "At such a price, some people will feel uncomfortable."　　"That's Apple's rivals," says Yang, senior observer for the IT industry. In the past one months, major brands such as Motorola, Acer, Asus, Lenovo, Dell and others have all launched their own Tablet PCs. And the price is all over 3000 yuan. Acer China general Manager Ahrens told our correspondent, and iPad2 with a generation of Acer Iconia A500, the price "very shocking."　　But in fact, the price of the product is still as high as 3299 yuan.　　Li Xingren, general manager of China Mainland's tablet computer chip program provider, said the price was not competitive at all. Yang said that, in terms of brands, flat market sales trend will be a dumbbell-shaped, both ends of the volume of large apple and cottage, the middle of the thin is ASUS and other mainstream PC brands.　　Up to now, the most performance of the cottage flat prices are almost 1700 yuan below, most of the 500 yuan. "The most uncomfortable will be the middle brand.　　He said that after the ipad generation price reduction, has reserved the price space for the second generation, the middle mainstream brand, because lacks the scale, the price cannot achieve lower, unless "the loss earns the yell". Acer, a Chinese person, disagrees. "The company's tablet is equipped with Google Android 3.0 version, hardware interface, software applications and many other aspects than iPad2 more competitive."　　"he said.　　Yang that although the 3.0 version specifically for flat-panel research and development, but Google launched the rhythm is too unlucky, would like to rush out before iPad2 out, with the help of Motorola Big push, the result was iPad2, now flat price and no advantage, almost can be concluded that the next market, IPad2 will still become dominant. A similar view was expressed by one of the local tablet-chip solutions suppliers, who even asserted that 3.0 of mainstream Tablet PCs could not sell more than 10 million units worldwide this year.　　Apple's ipad generation sold more than 15 million units last year.　　In fact, iPad2 parallel sales market has been good, some channels 16G price has reached 4200 yuan, more advantages than the middle brand. "I am looking forward to a cottage tablet performance." Yang said, just at present, Google is too not to force, 3.0 version of the operating system to close, only authorized to the Middle brand, which is tantamount to the loss of road.
