Me and my future chemistry teacher(next year) are racing to get the iPad, we both want a 3g model, he wants 16gb and I want the 32gb
I think he's placed a reserve for one at an apple store approx. 30 min away while I'm taking a risk and are going to try and get one from Best Buy, 5 min away
Hopefully I will beat him and I'll send him a picture of it while he's still in line:p

Last I checked you can't reserve the 3G version for in store pickup yet.

Maybe you should buddy up with your future English teacher instead. :rolleyes:
 
A co-worker and I had a small wager on who would get their iPhone 3GS first. When they came they were both on the same FedX truck, and the secretary/receptionist who signed for them called us both up to her desk and handed them both to us at the same time. It was a dead tie, the funny thing was she did not know of our little wager. She just thought it would be fun to give them to us that way.
 
I actually bought an iPad and had one back in 1993.

eSoft's next big step was the IPAD - The "Internet Protocol Adapter" - a seperate hardware/software solution that, tied to the TBBS machine allowed incoming telnet access to the TBBS system. It also provided outgoing access for those TBBS callers on dial in lines of the system to access the internet using the IPAD machine as a gateway. Eventually, many IPAD owners became Internet Service Providers (ISP's) as BBS usage on the whole began to wane, caused by the growing popularity of the Internet.

The IPAD was extremely popular. It had one major drawback - it was very expensive, and beyond the reach of most TBBS sysops who had already spent thousands on their particular TBBS line count versions.

Eventually, and understandably, eSoft® and TBBS went their separate ways as eSoft® pursued the Internet market. Eventually all technical support for TBBS and associated products were dropped and TBBS ended up in a "no-mans-land".

Ummm, you do realize that the 3G doesn't come out on April 3rd right?
