Yep, looks that way; a little over +9%. Seem to remember that iPad1 was around +8% here (UK) when averaged out over all the models, so it looks like they're keeping iPad2 in line, absorbing the VAT increase (20% now vs 17.5% last time) and hitting convenient price-points. To be honest, I don't think they'd have any shortage of buyers if they kept the existing prices, but it's always nice to see things getting "cheaper"
