Apple notes in its press release that everyone who buys a new iPad at an Apple retail store will be able to take advantage of the free Personal Setup service, should they so wish, which will help them to customize their iPad by setting up email, downloading and installing apps, and so on. In the US, Personal Pickup will also be available, meaning that you can shop and buy your iPad from wherever you are, then collect it at any Apple retail store. This feature is included in the free Apple Store app. In the US, the iPad will also be available to purchase at Best Buy, Radio Shack, Sam’s Club, Target and Walmart.[/FONT] Here we go!

I have taken the day off to sign for mine, when I say mine I mean the wife's lol. It's a surprise for mothers day from my little lad (that's what I will tell her anyway) :D. I honestly have not been this exited in ages - hope it gets delivered early!

I might swing by to look at the madness :D I waiting in line last year, I dont need to do it again.

GREAT idea. I'm minutes away from an Apple Store. If UPS does deliver early enough, I'm unboxing it, and then headed over to the Apple Store to poach some WiFi and maybe set mine up in front of the masses. :D

Some best buys are opening early, while others are not. Call your local store for more information

Do you think this can be compared to a black-Friday event, as far as crowds go? I'll be watching the news stories.
