Perhaps because I am a biased Apple Fan Boy but this thing is sweet.

If you like the original iPad, you will love this one.

The speed difference is immediately notable.

The size difference is awesome.

The Smart Cover works very nicely with it.

It is just a sweet device and again, if you liked the first one, this one is a must have for you.

Amazing.
We called the Apple Store before they closed last night and was told they were totally sold out on the AT&T 3G but had plenty of Verizon.
Stock was the same for both.
Interesting.
Appears all the negativity about AT&T v. Verizon is confined to a few and not the masses.
Apparently the masses have read the results that AT&T blows Verizon away on 3G speeds.

Great another update I have to ignore, at least until greenpois0n does their thing anyway

Apple doesn't want people take off from work ? Why limit to after 5pm ?

I think they did the same thing last time around.
They shut down the store at 4 and prepare just for mostly iPad sale and don't disrupt the other aspect of the business......I think.

The wife just asked last night if she can get an iPad 2. I just read the reviews from Carlos' link, and the wifi vs 3g debate, and I think I will tell her "yes" on a 64MB wifi version.

Every time I thought I made up my mind, I wonder again.

I still think best for me to get the 3G and have it if I want it rather than not if I do.
At the end of the day, $129 for me for the 3G or for the wife to go shopping on clothing.
Either way, it is GONE!!!

MurphysLaw · 03-10-2011, 08:32 AM

The more reviews I read, the more I really want one. My wife has a chance to win one during an incentive contest this month at her job, but she says everyone is trying really hard to win so it's going to come down to luck

So.......
Easy fix.
Buy one.
Hope like heck she wins.
If she does, you will each have one and no fighting over it.

I can't wait to get my hands on it except I know it will be hard to take it away from my grandson at first.

Wish I could, I'm just going to hope like heck she wins, and let her use it whenever she wants

elderboy02 · 03-11-2011, 09:18 PM

Now I want one. I need some help though. Should I get the 16 or 32MB one?

Also, do you think I will be able to go to Walmart or BestBuy and get one or will they be sold out?

jovenhut · 03-11-2011, 09:20 PM

I save a $150 dollars and got the refurbished 16G IPad 1 for $349. Could not pass it up at that price.

elderboy02 · 03-12-2011, 12:57 PM

All the local shops here are sold out. I place my order today with Apple for a Black 32GB wifi. It says it will take 2-3 weeks

To process. Add shipping time after that.

Yeah, that sucks. Why release the iPad if you don't have enough to give out without selling out?

Any word when stores will get more in stock?

AT&T slashes prices on original ipads again, taking another $100 off.

That is a badass price for the 64gb. I have no use for the wifi, but the storage would be nice, even though I don't use the 16gb I have.

Check with the store by your house. I was amazed that they actually DIDN'T sell out the first day the iPad 1 was released.

I know on base they only received 13 of the iPad 2 and were sold out within 4 minutes of the store opening.
