Poll

mac-nz carries one of the largest selections of Apple Mac news and reviews in New Zealand, covering Apple Mac and iPhone hardware, Apple Mac and iPhone software and Apple Mac accessories.

Take the quick poll and let Apple fans (and businesses) see what you think!

The previous poll asked when you wanted NZers to be able to buy the iPad – the US was April 3rd, with the 3G available too, in the US, by the end of that month. Australia was slated for iPad end of May, but there has been no word at all for Kiwi iPad hopefuls.

Of those who took the iPad poll, 40% wanted it legally on sale here at the same as Australia, 9.1% ticked 'who cares, anyway?" and the other results were all around the 10-13% marks accept for 'As soon as humanly possible!' at 16.4%.

Five NZ pollsters were selected at random to receive packs of Cyber Clean, the high-tech cleaning compound, thanks to Cyber Clean New Zealand Ltd.

The winners were Lisa Rademacher, Greg Owen, Jackie Procter, Mike Calkoen and Nikau Edwards. Congratulations!
