Israel drops iPad ban

Israel has lifted its ban on the Apple iPad two weeks after customs began confiscating the device due to concerns about the strength of its wi-fi signal.

Officials started allowing citizens and visitors to bring the device into the country yesterday, Reuters reports.

"Following the completion of intensive technical scrutiny, Israel Minister of Communications Moshe Kakhlon approved the import of iPad to Israel," a statement from the Communications Ministry said.
