So I looked on the Target inventory tracker and saw this store had stock. Called and they said they got about 8 16GB blacks in today - It was their first shipment since launch!

Anyway, I've been debating for over a week if I even wanted an iPad 2 since I already have an iPhone 4 and 27" iMac. But, I couldn't shake the hype off and decided to bite the bullet and get one. The second one I bought is for my girlfriend so don't worry, not buying up stock to make a profit:)

Excited to get it set up and will provide my first impressions in another thread (or this one if it stays popular:D)

FYI for Bostonians - that Target still had 6 in stock if you're interested.

Awesome. That is very good news & congrats on your haul. :)

I just hope there's stock coming into my local Target soon. :(
 
My Target in more rural MA has 2 16 and 2 32 GB wifi only, black. Called to check and basically the clerk seemed unaware of what they were sitting on. As of noon, I was the first inquiry and nobody bought one yet today. I am seriously thinking about reselling though I really wonder if it is worth the hassle?
 
sooo many places to post this besides a new thread. what if every single person here who bought an ipad posted a separate thread about it?

I bought an ipad in NYC!
I bought an ipad in DC!
I bought an ipad in Montana!
I bought an ipad in East Jibip!
I bought an ipad in my underwear!

What would happen? You'd post in each one of them complaining that there was a thread to post in.
 
Ugh. There are 3 Targets in my area that got iPads today but they're all WiFi only. :(
 
That's awesome! I just grabbed the last one a few minutes ago at a Target in Santa Ana, CA.

Love it.
 
Yea...people are neglecting Target. Everyone is focused on Apple Stores and Best Buys. Luckily, I have a ton of choices here in the Boston area. 4-5 Apple Stores...Best Buys and Targets.
 
Weird though, I asked the employee how many can a person purchase and he said only 1. :thumbsup:

Yea, the guy actually checked with a manager to ask if I could buy 2 and the guy said yea that's fine. He was somewhat distracted trying to move a wall mounted TV...but he let it happen.
