In case the article disappears behind the WSJ paywall, in short the article says:



1: Apple Stores in Frisco, NY, Boston and Houston sold out



2: Best Buy sold out, with limited amount again, like the Wifi version (5 of each Wifi version per store supposedly)



3: Gene Munster estimates 300,000 sold over the weekend, including pre-orders, same as Wifi version



4: Ebay listed 1200 Wifi iPads for sale, 250 stated are used



5: "Mainstream America is taking a wait-and-see approach," said Sarah Epps of Forrester Research



6: Lots of people in line buying to resell over Craigslist and Ebay (note: Wifi 16GB was going for $1000 on eBay)



7: 29 year old in line who already bought and sold a Wifi iPad says "It is too heavy to be comfortable to hold for any extended period of time," he said.

    Bunch of developers said their app biz doubled as soon as the iPad hit.

    Expect another AAPL blowout tomorrow (especially considering the unwarranted drop on Friday caused by the troubles with GS)!
