I think waiting for your new toy is a much better way to spend a Friday than at work ha. Plus it gives us a cool story to tell....to anyone that actually cares.

I'll see you there- wear your MacRumors t-shirt :D.

I agree! I don't have a t-shirt though. I'm just a 31 year old idiot that's willing to stand in line for his new toy. LOL! Just run down the line and yell BADMOON! I will say hello. :D
 
I am going to order online and wait a couple days. I got iPad 1 to keep me busy. :cool:
 
I want to go wait for it probably in NYC/NJ area but I also want to see what the reviews gotta say. But I know, I'll say to hell with it and buy it anyways.

Really been eyeballing an iPad for some time now!
 
I'm going on the 11th. I'm either going at 1 or by 4pm i'll be in line. I'm getting the 64gb WIFI Black. I don't think I have anything to worry about. No one is going to drop money on the 64gb Everyone is going to go for the 16gb, and then some others will jump to the 32gb.

I'll probably go around 4. Trying to get w white 32 gig VZW.
 
why do people line up?

I waited for the iPhone 4 it was fun overnight with a bunch of Apple fanbiys like myself was awesome the only thing that sucked is when the westcoast went online the servers shutdown so no transactions for a couple hours i was also in Texas in june so around 2 pm it was like 104 degrees so that sucked but besides that it is actually something t try out if you have patience and like to talk to other people
 
I may get one on the 11th, or wait until it gets dissected by one of our favorite Mac sites, to see what's the RAM and what other features and/or inconveniences it may have.

And as soon as I buy my new iPad 2, I'll place my current iPad for sale.

Haha alright will do. Don't worry I don't think you or I will be the only idiots there. Hopefully no one else wants the White 16 GB wifi! I'm deadset on the white to match the Macbook.
 
I agree- York needs to get on that. I didn't hear Best Buy was having them?? Their stock will probably be minimal though and all of the York turds will be waiting there early.

No further details have been announced other than that Best Buy will carry the iPad 2. But you're right about the York turds, haha, I'll probably skip Best Buy and head directly to the Apple store around 2 or 3.
 
I returned the first one when I heard ipad 2 was coming...but then i got the macbook AIR 13"...now I'm back to considering iPad 2...little over done to have them both, but iPad 2 looks awesome.
 
I dunno but if I was a purchasing agent and had to decide what to order I'd say screw-it I'm only getting black ones so I don't get stuck with white inventory that I can't sell. I'd let Apple handle the white ones and take the risk. But I'm not a purchaser so I don't really know.
 
Im going to the Danbury CT store with my friend. I have class until 4:00 so ill probably get there around 4:15. If there is a big line im going to just order online but if its less than 100 ppl ill probably just wait. ive waited since december for this so its worth it plus i have $380 in an Apple giftcard.

i figured if apple has 600000 ipad 2's ready each store gets around 2000 so thats a decent number. there should be a good amount at each store so most people should get one.

I'm going to go the southlake texas store right after school. I think i can get there at 3. do you think that will be a good time to get the white 32 wifi?
 
Does the online apple store charge sales tax? If not, you can forget the retail store.
 
talked to someone on apple chat, they said you can begin preordering the ipad 2 at midnight that day, so late thursday night i guess.

i'm going to walmart the first day to try my luck, if nothing or if there's a hella long line, i'm just gonna go home and order it online. or maybe even just wait til saturday when lines are died down a bit. i dunno. i just want it to be march 11 now!
 
Am I the only one going extremely early? I plan on being there at 5:00 a.m. My goal is to be first, and I still think I may go earlier to ensure that. I hate standing in lines, I must lead the line:) camping lines aren't even bad, it's fun. Was on an american idol line for 8 hours straight and then like 3 the next day. It's fun:)
 
I want to buy a 64g. Do you think I could wait until Sat. AM to go to an Apple store in NYC?
