With the iPad being so popular, I feel like their going to release it in December so they have enough made to meet the demand. Remember, September is around Christmas time and I feel that will not be able to keep up with the rush if they release it then.

I'm a spe. ed. teacher and I wrote a grant for 3 iPads. Apple makes the school districts sign some kind of agreement with them. My system doesn't seem to want to get into all that. We were able to find two. Now I've been trying since April to buy the 3rd one and can't catch anyone with them instock. We're in the Tuscaloosa, Alabama area. Would love it if Apple would make enough of them to supply the demand. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure a bi-annual realise might happen, some countries still have iPad 2 shortages and selling an iPad 3 too early might result in lost iPad 2 sales. Also I'm sure some iPad 2 owners would be annoyed if another iPad came out this year.

But we will see how this plays out.

Do you a Best Buy in the neighbourhood. Several Members have reported that they seem to have ample stock.

I don't get it; everywhere online I'm reading that everyone is out of stock on iPads but both of my local best buys are packed to the peak with iPads, and I think it would suck if apple released the iPad 3 next month because I just bought my iPad 2 like not even a week ago and to be honest I don't want to have to pay $541.50 again

These are rumors. Just rumors. The iPad 3 will be out next spring ~ typically, a year apart.

Well said, Marie. Rumours (note the UK spelling!). If you based your life on rumours you'd be worried about invasions by aliens....
