Last week I went to a nearby Apple Store to check out the lines/situation/supply. I got there a little after 8AM and there were about 15 people ahead of me. Most of us left when they said "no at&t" iPads.

I tried the same store today but got there just before 9AM and the store was almost dead but there were about 5 people in the process of buying iPads. While I was chatting with a rep another rep walked by with about 5 iPads and an MBA in her hand. I didn't buy anything as AGAIN, per the rep, there were NO at&t iPads delivered. Weird actually. In fact, I think he said they basically only got wifi versions.

I plan to check again tomorrow (place is super close) as I am not sure if I still have one being held for me since I got cash back for my Apple gift card.

Just thought I would share as this is not a huge store and when I called the big store around here they were in fact sold out by 9:30.

Just sharing.
 
I checked inventory lists for Walmart and Bestbuy near me and other cities and the inventory seems to be increasing every few days

But, it is still difficult to get on the whole
 
Yeah man ATT is hard to find! Yesterday I got lucky and bought the only ATT, lucky because there was about 20 people a head of me. I came about an hour earlier than 9. Are me everyone kept asking for ATT all was left was a bunch of 32 WiFI.
