Category Finance | Thursday, May 20th, 2010

Been itching to walk into an Apple Store and plop down a briefcase full of cash for a brand new iPad? Well, at long last you now can. Apple has reversed its policy of accepting only debit and credit cards for purchases of its latest device.

The policy change was prompted by Diane Campbell, a Bay Area woman who tried to purchase an iPad with $600 she had saved up, only to be turned away from the Apple Store because she didn’t have a debit or credit card. Picked up by a local news station, the story caught the attention of Apple brass, leading to the reversal.
