Last week, I had it all planned out to order from B&H at 6:59am PST on Sunday morning. But after the reading about the flurry of backlight bleeds on Friday and Saturday, I just couldn't do it. 
Mine didn't ship again today so thats the third time B&H has lied to me.
On sunday he said the 32GB wi-fi would ship for sure on Monday and charged my card. I asked him twice, he said for sure.
On monday they said it would ship for sure on Tuesday and they had not gotten any 32GB iPads in. Unless people here are lying they did get 32GB iPads.
It didn't ship today and when I called he said they had no idea when they were getting more.
I cancelled and told him to refund my card. I could handle the lies a little better if they had not charged my card for something they didn't have.
I've ordered many thousands of dollars in equipment from B&H over a period of at least 10 years. I'll be reconsidering how much I purchase from them in the future.
I'm done with people wanting to take my money up front on the premise that someday I will get an iPad and in the meantime will have to pay my credit card bill for something I don't have.

To be fair the model 32GB you wanted might not have been the 32GB they had available.
Same thing happened to me. Only reason i'm a little impatient is because I ordered the 16gb black wi-fi when they opened on Sunday and it's still backordered.
As long as it doesn't take the 4-5 weeks Apple Store is quoting people i'm happy

Seriously.
My Smart Cover will be here tomorrow... doubt my iPad will though lmfao.

something wrong, i ordered on sunday 16gb wifi and mine is shipped today.
Yea that's what I was thinking, I may have to call or chat with them sometime tomorrow to see what's up if it doesn't change by then.
It's past midnight central time, so for me this is the day! I just want to wish any that gets an iPad today, tomorrow, or by the end of the week, good luck. I once again really want to thank the OP for letting us in on the situation. My AAFES order is still looking at another 2-3 weeks, but this just saved my day!
I also want to say sorry to the ones that missed out on the initial rush and are backordered. I really don't think B&H is that kind of company to do it deliberately. It seems to me that Apple is being the one that tight with numbers in regards to shipments. So B&H is doing what they can, and they will get you one if you are patient.
Thats all I had for tonight. I imagine we'll start seeing more and more unboxing pics. I might do an unboxing video, but one, where I try on the Targus TPU and also give my hands on impression of the smart cover.

B&H don't charges your credit card they only checks if you got money in your card.
How they are going to take your money if they don't even know when they are going to have stock?
This is a new item being released in limited quantity, We are accepting orders and they will be filled in the order they are received. Your card will be charged upon placing the order. *
[Yes is going to been charged, but the money are staying in hold at least in my bank (Bank of America)] You are in a list if you found it in another place before B&H ships yours you can just cancel your iPad 2 Reserve.

I ordered on Monday morning and the charges appear on my Credit Card statement now...it was not a hold
Just got off the phone after ordering a 16GB/Black/WiFi. Didn't say how long it would be, but I can wait. As long as it's not any longer than 2 weeks before it's shipped. The biggest thing though was paying no sales tax. Thanks OP.
Ordered mine on Sunday and it is currently 20 mins away from where I am right now but not due to be delivered until tomorrow. I want to be angry but I guess I should just consider myself lucky it's as close as it is.
It's ok.. the smart cover will disappoint you once you start using it. It's a highly marketed piece of trash. I've already returned mine. Frayed edges, the magnets weren't that strong, and felt cheap. It's really not worth it.
I am pretending that I can wait and that the money saved from sales tax was worth it. I ordered mine yesterday morning.
16gb wifi black, ordered around 10:10AM PST on Sunday. Did 2nd Day Air shipping to Los Angeles.
I been in the chat three times today and i ask when you are going to have stock they said well we don't know.
