Belfast, Ipad Launch

gmwalsh2012 · Oct 31, 2012, 08:32 AM

Hi All,

Is anyone bothering to go and queue for the iPad Mini, i'm considering it myself, but not sure if there will be a need...

Cheers

Id love to be queuing considering my Pre-order isnt due to the 15th Nov, but i cant get the day off work so im hopign and praying by some miracle there will be some on Sat morning when i head up the road.

gmwalsh2012 · Nov 1, 2012, 09:31 AM

That's my plan as well - here's hoping. Thinking optimistically there should be good stock based on previous releases, and there hasn't been nearly as much hype about this.

Terriann010187 · Nov 1, 2012, 09:39 AM

Well Good Luck and ill keep my fingers crossed.
I have to be in Belfast on Sat for 11am so ill be able to update this with some info!

gmwalsh2012 · Nov 1, 2012, 09:40 AM

Same, and if I manage to get down tomorrow AM i'll post an update. Good luck

Considering it..

Based on other launches, when is the best time to get down there if you want to be away by 10am?

gmwalsh2012 · Nov 1, 2012, 09:49 AM

Depends, if its like the iPhone 5 launch then u'd wanna be there at 6.00am or so. If it's like the other iPad releases, you might be safe with 8am. I've not idea what the demand is going to be, but safe to assume it won't be as high as the iPhone 5.

I'm going to scoot up after work tomorrow at 5pm to give it a shot. My online order won't be here until the 15th and that's doing my head in!!!

What is stock like for ipad mini?

burnsstuart · Nov 2, 2012, 03:37 AM

What's the queue like now? Anyone got one yet?

nataliamck · Nov 2, 2012, 04:41 AM

I actually reserved one at PC World in Lisburn so I won't need to make a trip to the Apple Store.

Seems they have all sizes and colours in stock

gmwalsh2012 · Nov 2, 2012, 05:43 AM

Hi guys, just went to the store in Vic Sq. no queue, but they are out of all the 16gb - a load of other ones available though. You can get them online (delivered monday) from PC World
