What's most intriguing is that there is almost certainly some good (financial) reason for this strategy. Perhaps it's to do with marketing as Apple tries to make their products a sign of "rich and have friends globally" before opening up sales. I wonder how many new iPads Apple made for sale in India, or whether they are continuing to use existing stock.
