iPad Banned In Israel
Apr 16, 2010 News
If you treat iPad as you wife , then you are really going to miss it on your trip to Israel. The country has banned all iPad imports and the same is also applicable on tourists carrying an iPad. If they find you carrying an iPad , they would confiscate it and you would be charged a daily fee until the you depart their country or ship the iPad back to your country .
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) allows Wi-Fi broadcasting at higher power levels than are allowed in Europe and Israel – this means that the stronger signal could consume higher bandwidth, or throw off others wireless connections .
Nati Schubert , a senior deputy director of the Communication Ministry says “If you operate equipment in a frequency band which is different from the others that operate on that frequency band, then there will be interference,” and also told AP ”We don’t care where people buy their equipment … but without regulation, you would have chaos.”
There have also been few issues in the past with Apple’s products , like the iPhone which wasn’t officially allowed until December last year.
Israeli officials said the ban has nothing to do with trade and is simply a precaution to assure that the iPad doesn’t disrupt service for wireless devices already in use in Israel. Schubert expects this problem to be resolved before the official international release .
