Will it be 12:01am Friday morning or will they start taking online orders at the same time they start selling them in the stores?:confused:
 
It will be 12:01 AM PST. I don't know if any stores are opening early or not.

Better let Apple know, since their Press Release says otherwise. :D

Apple® today announced that iPad™ 2, the next generation of its magical device for browsing the web, reading and sending email, enjoying photos, watching videos, listening to music, playing games, reading ebooks and much more, will be available tomorrow at 5 p.m. local time at all 236 Apple retail stores in the US and through the Apple Store® (www.apple.com) beginning at 1 a.m. PT. Every customer who buys an iPad 2 at an Apple retail store will be offered free Personal Setup service, helping them customize their iPad 2 by setting up email, loading new apps from the App Store℠ and more, so they’ll be up and running with their new iPad 2 before they leave the store. iPad 2 will also be available beginning at 5 p.m. local time at AT&T, Best Buy, Target, Verizon Wireless, Walmart and select Apple Authorized Resellers.

Now to be fair, the 12am time had been published on several blogs, so it makes sense to remember that as being the time. The PR just came out last night / this morning.
 
It goes on sale at 1:00 am Pacific Time.
