    good luck. I called four hours before they came out and the store said they already had 100 people in line. I'm not waiting in line but I might drop by a store tonight to check it out.

    My company is paying me to be here, they are paying for the 12 iPads that I'm about to pick up, and 4 of my best friends are waiting in line with me.

    So everyone honestly still doesn't realize that apple just adds one minimal new feature that they could have previously added to the last product in order to get morons to buy and re-buy the same product every year, hence giving them the most unfair and undeserving stranglehold on the technology industry in the history of modern economics?

    I am a proud owner of the Iphone both 3Gs and now the 4 but this post sums up my reasoning for not getting an iPad. Also I dont really have the use for one for business reasons and definately love the prospect of it's cababilities its just a toy for me.I'd rather take a trip somewhere for 700. I can wait till a) the price drops a bit for the 3G version b) till they put all their eggs in the basket at once and hopefully the iPad 3 (or if something better comes along) suffices those requests.

    Smart cover is pretty awesome tho

    I'll never understand this. Unlike a video game, where there are achievements for being first, getting an ipad first is basically saying "My friends won't think im cool if I don't get it soon"

    lol @ peer pressure.
