Maine Junior Highs Snags 30,000 iBooks For Just $48

This is an offer you can’t refuse, how about buying an Apple iBook for $48? No, the iBooks are not imitations and they are not defective. So you may be wondering how you can get one of these right? Well unless you attend Junior High in Maine, owning one of these babies cheap is just impossible. So how did this happen?

The $48 iBooks are acquired through the Maine Learning Technology Initiative, a program that gained attention for distributing Apple iBooks to all of the state’s seventh- and eighth-grade public school students four years ago. Now, they are aiming to give some more newer laptops and for the public schools to outrightly own the older ones, they have to buy it – for $48 a pop.

Most schools are choosing to pay the price to keep the laptops, although they have no obligation to do so, well, who can’t resist such a bargain? School officials are saying that acquiring all the 4-year-old iBooks is such a good investment even if all had been in the hands of different students and have been used extensively.

Although maintaining the iBooks would entail sky-high maintenance fees, most schools are looking in the option of distributing some of the iBooks to students and their families to remedy this future situation. Personally, this is such a cool bargain, a steal even. Now, don’t you wish you’re living in Maine?
