Amazon has just slashed the price of the 10th generation Apple iPad to an impressive $259.99 with shipping included. You can grab this deal in either Blue or Silver. This price is remarkably close to the lowest we've ever seen; it briefly hit $249 during Black Friday, but sold out within 24 hours. The reason for this price drop is likely due to the recent announcement of the 11th generation iPad, which is currently available for preorder on Amazon and set to ship in March.
