We recently reported that Apple is expected to announce its annual Back to School promo in the coming week and now BGR is reporting that this years educational deal could be announced during WWDC.
It has been rumoured that the promotion could be extended to include iPad 2 as well. The rumored details say that everyone who buys a new Mac with their educational discount would receive a free iPod touch or $200 off the cost of an iPad 2.
For the past few years, Apple has kicked off new educational promotions in late May or early June. The promo usually clears out Appleās stock of older model iPods. However, this year poses a new dilemma for Apple since they do not carry any older models of iPod touches.
The rumors seem to make sense, since the iPad has taken its place among educational instituions and is very popular among college students.
WWDC 2011 is widely expected to include Mac OS X Lion announcements, iOS 5 announcements, as well as the new educational promotion.
Are you excited about iPad 2 discounts? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
