The Apple Store in Aberdeen has stock of certain iPad2s and they have a sign saying they are receiving new stock every day at 0900. On Thursday, I was sitting next to a girl in Starbucks who had just purchased a white iPad2 and Smart Cover and she didn't even know anything about a shortage. She'd just walked in asked for an iPad2 in white with a leather Smart Cover, they had one in stock, she bought and then went up to Starbucks and unpacked it. They had initialised it in the store for her and she was up-and-running with her email in 5 minutes. I was green with envy as they don't have the model in stock I'm after....

I'm doing it the other way around - buying an iPad from the Apple store and then getting an Orange SIM - at present I have an iPad1 with a '3' SIM but I need an Orange one too for a reason that's too stupid and embarrassing to reveal....

Tim, I think you are the funniest guy on iPF!!! I'm assuming you're waiting on a 64gb 3G. And that little girl prolly gotta 16gb wifi to read on. As if the iPad 2 were simply a kindle. THE NERVE!!!!
