Here's the question... Does anyone know WHEN the Apple Stores will definitely be receiving shipments? (i.e. this question is directed to any Apple employees)

Would be helpful to get some good information somewhere.
Apple workers aren't allowed to post here. No one can answer your question.

If you call them, they tell you that they get trucks most days, but workers in the stores don't know what will be on the trucks.
 
In Orange County, Fashion Island Store had the ipads in, not sure how many... the store started selling at 9am and was sold out by 10:30am ..not sure about other places in OC
 
update

Sacramento, CA - Arden Mall had a bunch (20+). I picked up a White 32gb 3G(verizon) and a White 16gb Wifi.

Sounds like all they had were Verizon and Wifi models.

They didn't start selling them until 11:00am. The apple store employees were pretty awesome, but not very helpful with information until 0-minute.
 
Long line this morning, I was almost at the head of it and then they come out and say, "Sorry, no iPad 2s, try again tomorrow."

Lots of miffed people.
 
The Apple store in Mission Viejo received a shipment of 28 this morning, wi-fi and Verizon models only. They sounded optimistic when they said they expect to receive some each morning. If you plan on picking one up there, get there early, todays supply was reserved by 7:30 this morning.
 
The Summit Mall store outside Akron, Ohio did not have iPads this morning, although the store did open early, and there were about 30-40 people in line by 8:45 am when I showed up. I did get to play with one in the store, but will now still wait until April 15th when I am supposed to get my black 32 GB Verizon.
 
San Diego, 6:30 am

Yes sir, you can have your iPad in only 5 to 6 weeks. Thank you for driving down here at 0:dark:30
 
I wonder if Apple Stores will be open tomorrow too? Has anyone heard of anything? Walnut Creek, CA had 40 iPad 2's to sell and 10 people shy of getting one, stupid alarm clock! Didn't wake me up on time, that 15 mins was crucial!
 
Northern VA

Anybody planning to go to the Northern VA apple stores Wednesday morning? If so, which one and how early?
 
Today, aka wednesday...

Nashville (green hills) Apple store got a shipment of ~25 in, but they "sold out" by the time I got there at 7:45AM. Apparently they came out and took down names and what they wanted on an iPad instead of giving tickets out.
 
Called north NJ stores again. This time, they actually had some, but limited quantity. They'll all be sold out by 10. I'm waiting until next week.

Well Syracuse was a waste of time. They announced at 9am that they only had 15 iPads. There were about 80 people in line.

Not a waste of time... I got one :)
 
Alderwood Mall - Washington

I was second in line and picked up two wifi 16bg black ipad2's. Looked like they had about 50 - 60 units. No white wifi versions thought =T
