I'm surprised the line is that long. Why is it going that direction though? You'd think the line would have gone the other way so it wrapped in front of Macy's. That way you'd be able to see the progress of the line as you moved 
I might be trying Best Buy if this keeps up.

No! Shoo! There are 500 people lined up there. Back to your Apple Store!

LOL. Best Buy here I come!
I'm going to try to leave work a few minutes early and go staight there. Hopefully the line won't get too much longer in the next 30 minutes. Save me a spot Ashyukun!
Mall line is now at Express...Apple employee said they are getting a shipment in every hour until 5:00pm. They also said that @ 4:45 they will come thru the line and let you tell them which one you want until they run out. There is a 2 limit per person not household.
LOL. Best Buy here I come!
Good luck!

Still less than a dozen people in line, though we still haven't heard anything about stock. Seems like everyone should have pretty good odds here so far...
Take a poll on what everyone else is getting. Convince them to start at the top end models.
Line is at least around Coach at Fayette Mall. Can't see the end. Bit they said they have a lot. They will be going around asking what people want soon.
I left maybe a half hour ago. The line was moving quickly and didn't look bad. I'm not sure what the availability was at that point, but they seemed to have plenty. In fact, earlier they said, "We have plenty." I know that the employees were set to work until midnight tonight, which makes me think they planned to have enough inventory to get to that point. Of course you never know how many of each model they had, etc., but they seemed prepared to sell a lot of them.
A guy my husband knows at Best Buy said they got fewer than 100 in. I'm sorry but I don't know if that was Hamburg or South Park. And obviously secondhand information, but since this is MacRumors, I guess it's okay to post a rumor! Good luck everyone with your iPad shopping!
At South Park they seemed to have a ton. About 40 people in, they had only ran out of 2 skus from what I saw. How did the mall turn out for those that went? There we all kinds of horror stories in the Best Buy line. Did it look like just about everyone was going to get what they wanted?
I'll find out how the Apple Store is doing tomorrow- I forgot to get the AppleCare that I'd planned on while at Best Buy, so I'm planning on stopping by to get it and see how they're doing and see what interesting accessories they have that Best Buy didn't.
I know as I was leaving with mine (I was about 4th in line) there were two guys walking out angrily as apparently the store had run out of the model they'd wanted.

Trying to decide
Man, did i have an ordeal. I first started out waiting in line at Hamburg BB and came out empty handed by about 5 people. 2nd, I went to Nicholasville Walmart and had them call me if the one I wanted sold. It sold right before I pulled in. Headed to Fayette Mall, waited in line there for an hour and a half. Only had wifi+3g left. I was pulling my hair out at this point. I just made all the wrong decisions. anyone know if they will have anything in stock tomorrow? Or should i just order online?

I think that the Apple Store was supposed to be getting in shipments fairly continuously, so it might be worth trying again tomorrow. You may consider swinging by the South Park BB on the way, or seeing if they're showing up in their inventory online for pickup at the store.
Unfortunately I may not be heading over there until late afternoon so may not be able to get any useful info before you'd be heading over.
