I only could get an order through by calling them directly. The gal helped me buy two iPads, and got an email confirmation shortly after.
Try calling!

For those of you who are having trouble... use Safari instead of Chrome. For whatever reason.. Safari completed my order in 5 minutes. Ive been struggling with chrome for last 20 minutes!
Pick Up in Store not Eligible
So when I go through the pre-order pages I get to the page where you can choose Ship or Pick Up. Pick Up says Not Eligible. Anyone else experiencing this? I'd like to pick it up in store on the 16th.

Stuck on the processing page. I refuse to hit refresh or back, is it normal to be stuck on this page right now. Been processing and cog wheeling for 10 minutes now.

More thank likely they won't allow pickups as they expect to be swamped by people camping out.
The store is working pretty well now.. I've went through 5x now up until final checkout and it was very fast for me..
Well, usual server overload PITA biz from Apple. I first tried to order via my iPhone, would click to go to the checkout page and site would go down. Then it would come back, rinse, watch repeat. Finally I got to the check out page and I had 10 iPads in my cart! I tried to delete 9 of them but it wouldn't let me. Bah.
So then I tried the online site and finally got through after 30 min of hitting reload. It was slow going and had to reload again within the store a few times but finally got to the checkout page to seal the deal. However annoying it was it beats wasting time in line.
So I ordered a 4G 64GB. Originally I was going to go with the 32GB version, which is what my iPad 2 was, but I only had 8GB free and figured with neat new apps like iPhoto and now the capability to edit and stream HD video 32 extra GBs for $100 more might be handy.

FINALLY got all my orders in. 6 iPad 3's, each a 64gb WiFi model, are on their way to me for delivery on March 16. I had to use 3 different accounts which took me like dozens of tries using multiple Macs and browsers but finally got confirmations on all of them.
The higher resolution may finally give me something to do other than having to do renders at the client site. Need to get my developers cracking on exploiting the higher resolution of the new iPad 3's!
