iPad 2 London Thread

richchestmat said:
As for Westfield do you have any ideas which models people in the queue want? If demand for the 64Gb 3G is low then 30 people in the queue ain't so bad if only 4 of those want the same as me.
I'm hoping to get there for 3pm but if it looks hopeless at that point I'm going to try other options.

Same here, although I wont be able to get there until around 4! Could you do me a massive favor and post on here what you find when you arrive at 3?

http://www.ipad2queue.co.uk/ seems to be down & overloaded :(

Mmm..

I'm in north London I'm trying tottenham and wood green, Enfield and west end r my last resort! I reserved one in Argos but they aren't sure if they will have it by 5 bcoz it says they will get it by tomorrow...
 
Any updates on the size of the queue in Westfield? Have any of the staff indicated people at the back of the line might be "disappointed"?

Cheers
 
Am in the queue in covent garden. Massive queue, I guess about 300 + people? Apple employee suggested we should be ok. If you want any updates, tweet me @nickhudgell

Also, if yourte coming down, bring sunscreen, its sunny and hot!!
 
Going to head down to Kingston in about 20 mins. Will be tweeting live to let people know the queue situation down there. My twitter handle is @lixlev if anyone is interested.
 
Im in the lakeside Thurrock queue it's getting busy here now at least 100-150 in the queue.

Loving the free food and drink

Would love to however Twitter is blocked in work! So will be looking for updates on here only :(
 
According to Twitter the Westfield queue is now out of the building. Think I might wait on my online order and hope for faster shipping instead.
 
They had to start a 2nd Q here at Coven Garden, probably more than 500 ppl already and thats just as far as i can see
 
Just been into the O2, Vodaphone and CPW shops on Canon St

No Stock

Vodafone will online order, estimated 2 weeks!!!
 
Cancom (an APR) on High Street Kensington have good stock of wifi only models. Shame for me as I want 3G but this might help someone else out.
 
Anyone that wants me to get them an ipad come to the front of the long queue outside Regent Store. (The front of the VERY long queue at the side of the block.) I'm at the very front wearing aviators.

Would be interested in this mate, problem is I need to pay on my business card - I could swap places with you and buy us both 1 and just charge you less for it?
 
I'm liking that collaboration. I hope that works out well for both of you. Am headed to high street ken now and I'll report back. I'm on LocalMind too

I'd be very interested in that. You already got someone to buy for? Are you doing it for free, or how much do you want? I'm only in london for two days, leaving tomorrow, and it donesn't really feel right spending 1 of the 2 days queuing outside an apple store. Got my first gen stolen a couple of weeks ago, so that made the decision to buy the new one a bit easier... Anyway, if you can buy another one, or anyone else at Regent or Covent Garden can, I'd be very interested. Don't have much money, but I could pay you for a smart cover or something like that...

High Street ken - what shops stock it around there??
Click to expand...

As far as I can tell PC World have 50 in the queue and Argos is 100% reserved somehow.

Cancom is limited on everything. As I said it's not looking that great for my 64GB 3G need right now
 
At pc world top of tottenham court road and theres prob 50 people in queue and they say they have 200 of them. Going to be handing out tickets soon.
 
I'm in lakeside shopping centre.
About 70 in line, queued from 11:30am... There are now about 120 behind me and all everyone has been guaranteed their first choice model!!!

Seems like there is alot of stock
