The Official I pre-ordered my iPad 3 Thread!

[tonyhs]

I snagged a Black 64g Wifi only. Delivery on the 16th. I'm pumped. My kids and wife can fight over my Ipad2. Anyone know if the Smartcover works on both Ipad 2 and 3?? Did they change it??

Smartcover is the same for Ipad 2 & the New Ipad

Ordered 32 gig 4g,
Also ordered new smart cover.

though can't seem to find anywhere the back cover for it. I had a skinny skin rubber for my ipad2, and now that the thickness of the 3 is slightly higher
ebay has not come up with one yet.

Ordered my new iPad a few hours after it was announced. Now just waiting for good cases to come out.

I ordered a back case on eBay it's says it's for the new iPad so there are some people selling them already , it's the same as the one I have for iPad 2 just a Simple black rubbery case I can use with my smart cover

Wow, the status of my order just updated again: (Black 64gb 4G) it's now showing as 'Shipped on 11-Mar-2012 - Delivers on March 16' - I now have UPS shipping numbers for both of my items which track to my local UPS delivery Hub. Happy Days!

Ok guys, I have backed up my iPad 2, so what is the 1st thing I do when I sync iTunes with the new iPad, restore from backup? I am trying to sell the 2 now, but want to retain the same apple ID on the new iPad and all the apps/content.
TIA
