I just got back from the apple store here on long island in the walt whitman mall. They said they sold 200 of them and still had some left . This was at 330.
The only reason why i dont have one is id rather wait till the next version . I am worried about a too big of a spec ipgrade for the next version.
A few have been tossed, a few have been warned. Makes for a nicer experience, don't it?
Yes, I was expecting the proverbial to hit the fan today but it has been great!
A lot less wailing and gnashing of teeth. It is quite unprecedented for an Apple launch I would say. Either the iPad is mindblowing or the mod squad have been busy. :-)

Our Best Buy had 40 people in line at 9:00 a.m. They then informed us that the UPS delivery would be late, but they had 30 of each model coming. I picked mine up at 2:30 p.m.
Maybe the Bay Area is just Apple crazy, but at the Emeryville Apple store there were two lines: the one to get in to buy an iPad, and the one just to get in. They had half a million blue shirted Apple Store staff, and were telling everyone that they weren't open for normal business.
After waiting in line for about 15 minutes (this was at 3pm) I was allowed to play with an iPad under the watchful eye of a staff person. She wanted to start with a "demo", but I told her I was good, just wanted to check it out.
I have to go back when I can just pick one up and dick around for a while, without feeling like the clock is running.

Hmmm...maybe I should play with it for a few days and see what happens.
Like you need an excuse.
