Lol yeah was so happy to be #3 and not 1. The first guy had the mics shoved in his face all day.
Everyone kept asking him when he got there. I told hime to put a sign on his shirt so he did. It said 1am start or something. Lol he was tired of the questions.

I am just too old and cranky to keep waiting in line at the Apple Stores.
This is ridiculous.... If my local Staples has a WiFi Xoom in stock Sunday... I am jumping ship and giving up on the ipad2.

I ordered my ipad2 a few weeks ago online. My delivery date is April 23rd. A friend just ordered one yesterday... his Delivery date is also April 23rd.... hmmmm...
I also put a hundred bucks down at Best Buy a few weeks ago... no word.

Over the last few weeks I have also sat in line at Apple stores 2 hours before opening on the off chance that they might have a few available.... no luck.

I'm too old for this nonsense... Apple really should fulfill backorders before releasing to new areas. [As in yesterdays release to other countries. From what I hear, now they have even more inventory problems. ]

The only reason I have considered ipad2 over Xoom anyway was for GarageBand and a nicer user experience. [GUI]

Just wondering if any other Forum users are considering jumping ship too.

BTW - I live in Oregon.

Late but anyway

If you can't learn to wait, then go with less quality

Ipad don't need a sore looser

This was not respctfult and I admit it, but do we ever need this kind of people???

Does he need a cookie, or a medal?


It's like a job if you quit the job will you go see your ex boss ( hey I got this job ****you). Not really

This forum is a pleasant one and we don't need useless people trying to ruin it with useless comment

I figured out that one of the walmarts in my area is getting steady shipments. I call everyday at lunch time to see if they have any iteration of the 32 gb

By the way I ordered / reserved the 32g with wifi, black on March 12 10am. I was there on launch day at 20 minutes to 5:00. But they wouldn't let me reserve then saying i had to come back in the morning. He said they couldn't access what they needed to (The system) in order to let me reserve on the 11th.?

I feel bad for everyone that will go buy a xoom due to lack of patience. The iPad 2 is the only tablet worth buying right noe. Have fun with your 200 apps and a flawed system :)

I got a 16gb on 3-11, got in line at 4:20pm. Played with it for 2 weeks. Decided I needed more space and might as well get 3G. So I returned it on Thursday and got this 32gb Verizon. Both white which was all they had, I kinda like the white now. I might return this when supply eases up and get a 64gb. I used the Best Buy inventory tracker I found on obamapacman.com to locate the 32.
