Don't seem to be many around, and today I managed to get a Verizon one at Best Buy but the AT&T 64 gb seems to be a rare find. I have one being shipped from China and it seems to be stuck with a bunch of other 64gb aT&t black models. Thoughts?

I have mine so that's all that matters to me! But it seems most are 16 & 32gb.....wonder if they manufactured fewer based off iPad 1 sales?
 
AT&T models are ridiculously hard to come by.

You can find Verizon models for around $100 above retail.

Good luck finding an AT&T model for less than $300 above retail.

Not to mention the anecdotal evidence suggests an extremely slow trickle of AT&T iPads.
 
Might sell our 64GB, in actual daily use, we are finding we can't get any real work done on it and will end up taking the 13" MacBook Pro anyway, kind of a waste of $800+ on a toy at this point.
 
Seriously? I like everybody else waited in line at the apple store in Tucson and got my 64G 3G. Thursday while driving home in my jeep a wind gust blew my ipad2 out and under my back tire crushing it. I have been trying to find another one since. Not sure how that is sketchy.

I guess the Ipad 2 isn't wind proof! :eek:

Oh and please cough up the pics...or it didn't happen.

WOW....any death to an iPad is crappy, but that's one really crappy way to go! Not only did ya buy one at full price now you are looking to buy another?

Given the way the prices are that's over $2G's potentially spent!!

Get rid of the Jeep.
 
I was very lucky to nab an AT&T 64 black iPad 2 at the Apple Fashion Island store in Newport Beach last week - haven't heard of many others getting them

No idea why they're so scarce though...
 
I got 4 32GB AT&T models today at the Apple store (Father and I got them). I originally had a 32GB but want the 64gb now. Everyone in the family has one now :)
 
I have two for sale in the marketplace section right now.

got lucky and waited in line this am. they were supposed to be for my company but it seems our online order shipped so we don't need them now.
 
The ATT 64 gigs seem less rare this week, haven't been able to get my hands on one but I've seen them around. Had a few chances to buy a 32 gig ATT, which is the closest I've gotten...
 
My best buy preorder for an AT&T 64 Gb white just came in. I've since decided that I want a 32 or 64 gb black. Anyone with a black 32 up for a trade + the cost difference, or a straight up trade?
 
I nabbed a 32 black ATT on craigslist Friday, had to jump thru hoops to get the cash and rush to beat out all the other parties, was so happy to get it, only $100 over, recouped that on the sale of a sealed wifi ipad 2 I got from B&H.
My unlimited plan transferred easily too. Shopping for skins and covers now.
 
Jeep vs 64G 3G

It still hurts. Trust me. On a side note. I called the Tucson Apple store today and they said they did get 2 AT&Ts in. of course I was too late.

Ouch. Did you take it into the Applestore and ask what it would be to fix it? Sometimes they replace a severely damaged unit with a new one for some money, but less than full cost of a new unit. Also I might make a genius appointment and say that you think you have a defective iPad and then pull this out, just joking of course but if you make them laugh they might try to help you out.

Part of the weight savings is due to thinner glass, cough it up to manufacturer's defect and see if they will replace it.
