Love it or hate it, Apple’s new toy is set to hit stores in Singapore and Hong Kong next month, as part of a wider rollout after being first sold in the United States on March 11.

Australia and New Zealand, along with several other European countries, will be among 25 countries getting the tablet computer as early as this Friday (March 25), as Apple pushes out the followup to its popular iPad.
