iPad2 at Fry's!

[SweetPoison]

Last night I was at Fry's Electronics ~ No one probably has heard of it before, pretty big here. Literally, actually!

Anyways ~ I asked them if they had the iPad2 and this guy looked it up in his computer and they had 20 of the 64 Verizon.

I asked him if there was one on display that I could play with and he said:

"Oh no, the second one won't be a display model" I asked him why and he stated that "because, that is the way it is, do you understand?"

Now, that was harsh, yes?

But they had quite a few, apparently. And my daughter said last yesterday that Sac State will be selling them soon as well.

**Never heard of Fry's Electronics**!!!!!!!

Whenever I fly in to SFO, I'm straight onto the I-101, down to HillView Ave on El Camino and just a few yards further down, on the left hand side is a small road that leads to the Palo Alto Fry's. It's a mecca - my first stop - always!!

OMG. I know exactly where every inch is of that, Tim!! I use to live near El Camino!

Its A Small World, babe. I think that is a Disney ride....

And after you've been to Fry's you can walk across El Camino to the McDonalds.....

Why is that sad, Tim? I will buy you some fries.

In my pre-vegetarian days, I'm ashamed to say that a Big Mac was my favourite meal.....

Just a note of caution. Before purchasing from Fry's it's a good idea to check their ratings with various online consumer sites. Suffice to say that the firm's reputation isn't the best...by far.

To be fair Fry's is such a huge retailer it may not be surprising that they would generate many complaints. Still, my experience in the past on two separate occasions has convinced me to never give them a third chance.

I couldn't hate the staff at Fry's any more than I do. They're horrible. The store though.. oh.. the store.
