The number of countries that do not yet have Apple‘s popular new iPad are quickly dwindling. 30 more countries have been announced to carry the new iPad starting May 11.
23 more countries are getting the 2012 refresh on May 11, most of it being South American countries such as Brazil. Parts of Africa and southeast Asia will get the device as well, such as Vietnam.
In addition, seven Persian Gulf countries will get the new iPad one day later. By the time the weekend is over, Apple’s not-quite-computer, a-little-more-than-smartphone device will be available in nearly 90 countries on Earth, which makes it highly likely that anyone reading this article can find the tablet in a local retail store and can more than likely download most VoIP applications for the device.
