able to select the iPad but not go to the Apple ID login page. the "limited quantities" has me worried.
 
Online Store has gone down by the looks of it, i got the "We'll be back soon" post it note
 
Ordered!

Managed to get through at my university! 64Gb 4G Black ordered for £639.60!


Payment site is very slow!
 
Got as far as selecting the smart cover now post-it note is back. Speaking of accessories... there was no reveal of the mystery accessory that was talked about in the last week?
 
Made progress with the ios apple store app. Got to check out, then had a white screen for ages.
 
Wow, so clearly at least one order has gone through. I wonder therefore why the site was closed.

It's clearly getting thrashed and it's the same story every single time Apple open up for pre-orders. Why the 45th richest company in the world can't sort out their store for handling the volume of requests, I don't know...

Maybe the crashing and the fracas is all part of the experience :)
 
Got to selecting iPad and then 32gb, but there was pictures and txt missing on the page but now its just store unavailable.

Still can't decide if should get 64gb...but think i will just get 32gb and save the extra £80 Just have to not have every free app on at once and streamline my ipad bit better.

Whats others getting this time around?

I agree. They've got a stock pile of cash. Upgrade your servers already! :mad:
