I got there at 6 and I was about 15th in the queue. I was in and out by 8.30! I now have a shiny new iPad 64GB Wifi which is syncing up right now.

There was about 80-100 people there.

Thanks!
I got into the q at 7. Got into the store at 8:30 and got my iPad (16gb 3G)
Typing this on it now.
 
Didn't make it today. Does anybody know if they are sold out in Leicester?

I would expect so I'm afraid. They had a lot of them all stacked up at the back of the shop when I got served I would guess they had about 200 left. I think people in the line would have left without one. The American dude (apple employee with a bad foot (he kept telling everyone he had a bad foot)) was telling us that they would have to start telling people what they had left.

I just went to PC World in Fosse Park. Store was very quiet and they still have plenty in stock. So I got an iPad within a few minutes. I've asked how many they've sold today, about 120 so far.

So it wasn't much of an "event", but I didn't have to wait, and that was quite nice... 😎

Let's unbox it now! 🙂

Enjoy your new toys!

Nice one. I love it. Enjoy
 
I called in fosse park pc world about 9.30 there was only a couple of people there and the fella said all were in stock which I was surprised about, I only wanted the apple case but they were all sold out, I did pick up a belkin screen protector though
 
So how are you finding the iPad ??

Personally I love it. Signed up with 3. Coverage in Leicester is great. At my dad's I get a faster speed on 3 than he does
 
Stupidly addictive, i just cannot put it down, spent god knows how much in the app and book store!!!! I got the wired mag that's impressive and a good indication how good magazines are to be when more come out

I'm in the same boat. Not paid for any books yet. Downloaded loads of books I always wanted to read (currently reading Dracula) I have 2 books on the go for the kids as well (Alice in wonderland & Winne the pooh).

Downloaded a fair few apps. Angry birds and everybodys golf are good. Loads of free ones just to try this bad boy out. I have download iWork, I can see that benign really useful.

I have not tried any of the mag's as yet, I know I'll get suckered in and end up spending even more money.

Typing on the is much better than I thought it would be.
