I ordered in store and for pickup rather than delivery. Not sure if that makes a difference. They're closed all weekend though from 2pm Friday, so unless it gets to the store tomorrow morning then it will be Monday at the earliest.

Why should that make a difference? I was told the orders were on a first come first serve basis...
 
The B&H deal was actually discussed many times last week on this forum before the creation of this thread. The only thing that stopped me from jumping on this deal at 6:59am PST Sunday was the possibility of having to make a return.

For those that have received one from B&H, how is the screen quality of your iPads?

Mine has a few spots of back light bleed. I realize this is an issue, but I can only see it in certain situations (brightness 100%, blank black screen, and dark room). I even used Netflix with 100% brightness (which I never do) in a dark room and could still only see the bleed at certain angles and I checked all four edges. I'm not saying this is not an issue, but I will rarely if ever be using the iPad in any of the criteria to recreate the issue to the point where I notice it.

I never even checked this on the first iPad and thought the screen was great, my biggest concern with the last one (had a couple bad ones) and receiving this one was dead/stuck pixel which I am happy to say I don't have.

With that said, I have a second iPad coming in and will check that one out. I'll keep the better of the two and sell or return the other. IMO, if it wasn't for this forum or other new sites I probably would have never noticed it. I guess sometimes ignorance is bliss, but this time it's too late. :p
 
how did people find out wait number in line they are? i talked to b&h and he said he has no idea. i also asked if i ordered one right now, which model would have the shortest wait and he said they would all be the same. lol.

I ordered yesterday and my card was charged already. Some of yours haven't been?
 
FYI, 16GB Verizon iPad2s are IN STOCK at B&H. Just ordered mine with overnight shipping and a Smart Cover :)
 
I ordered two 32gb black WiFi on monday morning, backordered on my status page. Talked to B&H today and they said 4-5 weeks delivery time
 
I work across the street from B&H. They only had 16gb Verizon 3G iPad 2 in stock today. They do not know when or what models they get. They just get shipped from Apple.

No go for me though. I need 64gb Black AT&T.

They wouldn't tell us how many they had though.
 
At the present rate, it is going to take a month to get one, it looks like. Patience is a virtue, it is quite easy to get caught up on the hype I must admit.

I ordered 1 32gb black Wifi on Tuesday mornining, and they said about 1 to 1.5 weeks. I guess they are giving all sorts of answers.

If its truly 4-5 weeks, I would definitely want to go and cancel my order. I'm tempted now to just order through Apple.com and whichever comes in first I keep, and then cancel the other order or sell it if it's too late and already shipped.

I just called to see if I can switch my 16GB Verizon Black to the White but they said they are completely out. Are they saving some for just in-store sales perhaps?

It's arrived in store! Going to collect it after work.

How did you order two? The B&H rep I spoke with said I can only buy 1 when I called today, 3/17/11. Did they change the policy?
 
Sorry to go off topic but a J&R rep assured me that they would be getting a large shipment of various models next thursday. So take that for what it's worth.
