2-3 Week Delivery time

[LJ_Chaz]

Hey all,

I bought the new iPad (my first iPad!) online the other day. It's saying 2-3 weeks for delivery... is it likely to be 2-3 weeks? Or could it be less?

Thanks all

Could be a lot less. The ipad2 delivery times tumbled massively compaired to the stated delivery info they gave clients. Mine certainly did.

Head to the Apple Store or Best Buy or Target. No lines today plenty of stock.

yes, you can also go and buy from a store. Apple will immediately cancel your online order without charge as long as they havent started shiping it from china. Apple told me this last year. you can check this via your online order status page.

Cheers guys! I actually live in rural Australia, so there's no Apple store close by unfortunately!

LJ, I live in the states & I don't have an Apple store near me either! I ordered my 1st IPAD yesterday to & got a delievery date of April 13th. I didn't think that was too bad, but if it gets here earlier I will certainly be happy!

I got mine 140 miles away in an Apple store in Indianapolis yesterday, two hours after the store opened. I had pre-ordered it, but they had a ton of them still for sale, so I bought one for my wife. All in all, a 280 mile round trip drive. Today we went to a Best Buy down the street from my house to looks for cases. They had all kinds of iPad3's for sale there. There was an Apple rep there. He told me they shipped out 20 times as many iPads for this launch as they did for the launch of the iPad2.
