Cheap iPad deals launching 3 December

<img src="http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/classifications/computing/mobile-computing/Tablets%20and%20touchscreens/apple-ipad1-200-200.jpg"> Orange and T-Mobile will begin selling subsidised <a href="http://www.techradar.com/reviews/pc-mac/laptops-portable-pcs/laptops-and-netbooks/apple-ipad-3g-692465/review">iPads </A>from 3 December as they bid to cash in on the Christmas rush. Select Orange customers started receiving emails last night offering them the chance to order their new iPad for £199 on a two year deal, with delivery coming on Friday. Alternatively, they could go and pick it up in store on the Friday having pre-ordered and apparently there will be limited stock for all others looking to get their hands on the new deals. An iPad is for life – well, two years We've checked out T-Mobile's site as well, and it appears the same situation is happening for the pink network: going to the <a href="http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/shop/ipad/buy-now/">'Buy an iPad' section</A> yields an option to buy it now, but "allow up to two days for delivery". So if you're after an Apple tablet but don't want to fork out hundreds of pounds up front, then best get camping outside an Orange shop soon – we reckon these will be snapped up pretty quickly.

Amazon to bring Black Friday deals to UK

<img src="http://cdn.mos.techradar.com//classifications/computing/internet-and-broadband/images/amazon-logo-200-200.jpg"> Amazon is set to bring its well-publicised Black Friday online deals to the UK this year, the Friday following Thanksgiving. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Friday_%28shopping%29">Black Friday</A> has gradually become America's online pre-holiday shopping day of choice over the last decade, and it looks like Amazon plans to bring the tradition across to the UK. While the term "Black Friday" sounds more like a remembrance service tradition for victims of the plague, it is certainly worth noting the date in your diary if you plan to buy books, gadgets, games, movies (or pretty much anything else that's available on Amazon) for your loved-ones this Christmas. When IS Black Friday? In more understandable calendar terms (for Brits, at least!) this means that Friday 26 November is a good day to do your Xmas shopping online on Amazon, if you plan to get the Christmas pressies in early this year. Of course, you could always do the 'usual' and leave the present shopping until Christmas Eve and then carry out the traditional panic run down Oxford Street (or round your local mall) to try to find that must-get item for the wife/mother/child/sibling/nephew. Amazon UK now promises Brits: "Unbelievable, pinch-me-to-prove-they're-real, Black Friday deals" set to be revealed next Monday (22 November) at <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/blackfriday">www.amazon.co.uk/blackfriday</A>. Hopefully other major online retailers will follow suit and start to offer some decent pre-Xmas bargains in the coming weeks.
