I'm planning to be there by 1pm. I'd really appreciate the exchanging of 'comfort breaks'
yeah i was fuming notw quite in tears though lol.
they gave me a full refund of the tax charges and now my friend in usa is applying to usps for the insurance money.
i would be more than happy to trade comfort breaks with the people around me.
I'm probably going to head to trafford centre between 9 and 10.
Doing the same as some have said... keep an eye on the queue before joining it!
Will shout on here when I'm there/joining/whatever... toilet break cover will probably be needed ha
Have added a couple of people on twitter, so will try tracking them down that way.
Google latitude might be good to meet up!?
Now just need to decide whether I want 32gb 3g+Wifi or 64gb wifi only!

Can't type meant to say not sure if they still do but when I worked at the TC apple store they use to do one to ones from about 7ish I think and so the peel avenue doors were open pretty early most days

When I worked at the TC apple store last year the launch was 8am and we still had stock towards close at 10pm and the stock area at the back of store was full of iPads, however don't work there now so no idea on stock and last year as the launch was delayed apple had time to build stick up. I think this year the might be half of the stock so I'd say anyone getting there after 1pm might be screwed but I'm only guessing

Bored in the cue now. Building up slowly. Earlier in the week one of the employes said that the entire back wall was going to be filled with iPads.
