Poor New Zealand

Poor New Zealand... We are always one of the last places to receive the much hyped Apple products. Look at the iPhone, which took years to reach our little country. Maybe it's because we're so far away, or perhaps because our population is so small, it's just not worth sending anything good our way.

But without us, where would the world be? We brought you "Lord of the Rings", which later turned into a great set of books. We conquered Everest, broke land speed records and were the first place to allow women the right to vote. We gave the world bungee jumping and even split the atom. 

So, please Apple, get the iPad over here soon. You've given it to our neighbours in Australia; why not us? We deserve more than just overpriced products that arrive a decade late... and don't even get me started on the iPhone plans. I don't mean to complain, but that's daylight robbery and you can do better than that, Apple.
