it wouldnt suprise me if fed-ex will be doing late deliveries that day, especially in metropolitan places.

but that does sound like a great morning/day/afternoon.

The past few days I have been having difficulty sleeping from all the excitement. I have the funds in my bank account and my debit card is ready! I am going to my local mall on Saturday and picking the baby up and walking out of the Apple Store with a huge grin on my face!

I can't wait to sync my movies, music, and tv shows! I can't wait to surf Facebook and Twitter while kickin back on my bed! I can't wait to use my fingers to share photos with my family and peeps and also to surf the net and check out the latest news.

I'm sorry I know this is kind of a useless thread but I know there are alot of you guys who are just as excited as I am, if not more! WOOOOOOO HOOOOOO! This is gonna be huge you guys, get ready for a monumental moment in technology history to take place in just 7 days!

That sounds like a really good idea. I could sit outside with my Barnes & Noble Nook to read while I wait.

I feel like getting that helicopter model that you use an iPhone to fly with, and hunt down every fedex truck there is near me.

I've been doing all that he said he was gonna do on my laptop. I guess I'm glad so many are so excited about the ipad, but the bottom line is that they will now get to surf the web, just like they have been doing all along.

Yeah it's a cool device, but by the end of the year when there are 30 different kinds of "IPAD like" devices out there, I don't think it will be a big deal.
I ordered an ipad for my son, but for myself , I am waiting for the HP slate to come out. I'd like the functiuonality of a real PC and not just a web surfing device.

I wanted to stay till the HP Slate came out as well, but couldn't hold out. I really, really, really hope they don't slap Win 7 onto the device and give it to us. They should custom tailor the UI for the tablet. That's when I'll buy it.

I couldn't hold out for 3G. I have an iPhone 3GS :) I'll be fine. But I am psychotic.
