Chinese Government Approves New iPad for Sale

How ironic that China, of all places, has a "Quality Certification Center" to approve products...

Does this mean that I can bring my iPad to China without paying the 20% tax when I head there in two months??? :eek:

China's Quality Certification Center has approved (http://www.engadget.com/2012/03/26/apples-new-ipad-gains-chinese-certification-could-head-to-reta/) iPad model number A1416 -- that of the new iPad -- for sale in that country.

China is an incredibly important market for Apple, with the company posting huge growth in the region in recent years. The approval, which was actually issued last week, comes as Apple CEO Tim Cook appeared in China (https://www.macrumors.com/2012/03/26/tim-cook-shows-up-in-beijing-reportedly-meeting-with-carrier-partners/) for meetings with Apple partners.
