If I decide to buy then mail order, easiest way and quickest way.
 
I'll be getting at Walmart whenever it comes out so I can return it if I dont like it without paying a restocking fee.
 
Just like last time.

Reserved one online. Showed up to store about 45 minutes before it opened. Smiled and waved at the line around the corner of people who didn't do the same.

Was in and out of the door in under 5 minutes.
 
When iPad 2 goes on sale, how early will you camp at the store?

"kind of early to ask that question.. "
Their is also a thread about iphone5, and its been online for weeks. So this person is obviously very patient :p

"Mail order works just as well and I don't look nearly as stupid or like a loser. Just thought I would answer."
I had a snide and sarcastic comment to put here, but I bet some of you can come up with better, no need to post it. But this comment really feels like a snide and sarcastic comment is owed.

This is what I did last time too, and will probably do again.

"I started to set up a tent yesterday......I got thrown out..."
Priceless...ROFLMAO
 
@bri1212,

These threads are a dime a dozen. Sometimes they are simply annoying while other times they are uber-annoying. This is one of those times. Considering it has been three or four mega launches now, why anyone stands in line, in the rain, in a tent is sort of lame in a way. Like one guy said, make a reservation, walk in, pick it up and out the door.

I'll camp.....at my computer, pressing the refresh button, every five seconds, until it changes to "shipped"; then, I'll camp at the UPS website, until it arrives at my house.
 
To be honest, it's fun to show up really early the release day of a NEW item (iPad, Wii, etc.) I don't understand why people do that for the next generations of devices, but whatevs :)
 
Im camped outside right now, Im the crazy bearded guy declaring the world is about to end, I'm hoping my craziness will scare off people so I get first dibs.
