Anyone getting in line here for tickets. Gonna check it out about lunch time

I'm thinking about it. I was planning on getting there at 3:00, but after seeing the longer wait time on the online orders, I'm getting nervous and thinking 2:00.

I called yesterday, and they told me that in past iProduct launches, they have run out of stuff after the Apple Store at Somerset did. I don't know how viable this is. They also said they've been getting a lot of phone calls about the launch, so...

Will you please post anything you find out around lunch? Thanks!

I talked to one of the associates there yesterday and he said they would be lining everyone for the ipad 2 up by the apple display by customer service as well as having all the accessories out for it on a separate table. He obviously suggested getting there before 4:30. I tried to get him to budge on inventory but he said he didnt know.:rolleyes:

Awesome, thanks for the update! I think I am going to get there around 2:00. I'm aiming for a 64gb 3G att model, so I hope it will be available! I'll call around 1:00 or so and ask if a line has formed yet.

Sounds good. Post here if you can if you get any info from calling. Thanks!

As of 1:05, there is no line, and the sales associates seem chipper. I was thinking 2 but I may do lunch and make it 2:30.

I am inside at the apple display. Last I heard there was only 1 in line and the apple rep at the store said that supply was pretty good but he still expected to sell out

5 of us outside now, 3 looking to get 64gb models.
 
8th in line. 10 more minutes until they pass out tickets. Line is well over 100 now. 45 min until product launch.
 
Got out of the store around 5:30. Easy process except the best buy associates relentless attempts to sell extra things such as the buy back program and black tie protection. Ticket process worked great and got everything i wanted
