Leave it to the early adopters to find a way to get their hands on an iPad even if they live abroad, where Apple will not begin selling iPads until the end of May. Their solution, to avoid going on living without an iPad for even a month longer than the Americans? EBay. EBay has been observing a brisk trade in iPads, with 65 percent of those sold on the site going to buyers in other countries. International sales spiked in mid-April, when impatient foreigners learned that Apple would delay international sales by a month because of unexpectedly high demand in the United States.
