reserved on May 14, still nothing, was told a week, been over 10days now --makes me wonder if ive been forgotten? 😟

I picked my 16GB+3G at the Irvine Spectrum store yesterday after being on the wait list for 16 days. I happened to also see some sort of list as my name was marked off as "PU'd" and the list was pages and pages long it seems. The screen they were using looked like an iTunes playlist, which I thought was rather cool 🙂 Hang in there!

The people working there were very nice. And BTW, they also called me on my cell too, which was nice since my biggest fear was that I'd miss their email somehow due to spam filtering or stupidity on my part. Very happy with the overall experience.

So do they have a list infront of them? If i called? Most of them seem to claim ignorance when it comes to visibility of reservations.

I got my 16/3g from UVU Bookstore yesterday. Try your luck at any university bookstore.

I have been on the reservation list at the Nashua, NH Apple Store since 5/12. It will be two weeks tomorrow and still no word. Anxiously waiting.

Signed up for the email notification for a 3G 16GB iPad at Smith haven Mall, Lake Grove, NY at May 12 and still haven't heard anything... Getting really tired of waiting, and getting really tired of all the secrecy and nobody knows anything 😟

Got it. Exactly two weeks.

64gb 3G from the Century City Apple Store.

Can't wait to get it home and set it up. It's SO pretty!!!

Got a cheap(ish) case from Amazon...that's going to be the next ordeal!

I have been on the waiting list since may 7th so don't feel too bad. I'm not even sure if I'm even still on the list because this has been a rediculous long time.

That's great news you got yours so quickly. I think I might just do that tomorrow. I had no idea that Simply Mac was a Reseller or I would have done exactly as you did. Thanks for the advice.

@Fireheavy- Good luck to you, and I hope you get it fast. I'm sure loving my ipad! Even if it does take a week-10 days, it's probably going to be faster than a reseller.

I've went on the waiting list for the 64 3g at the brea mall store on may 12th. Five days later a work friend came in with the same ipad i wanted, bought from the SAME STORE?? I stopped by the brea store to ask what happened and they told me that only a few are put aside for reserve and a few were sold on the spot? does that seem backwards to anyone else? Not to mention when i first put in the order they told me it would be only 3-5 days, no more, and was told it would be a ton faster than ordering it online...

Thanks sandygirl. I'm going to go online and order another 3G tomorrow. We'll see which one comes first but I'm thinking it will be the Apple Online Store that comes through for me.

Just got an email from Apple saying that my iPad is ready for pick up.
So it's been exactly 2 weeks since i signed up.

Exactly 7 calendar days at the Carlsbad (SCal) store (64GB). Also reserved on my wife's acct 7 days ago at UTC but no email yet, so locals to SD head on up to Carlsbad.

I put my name on the reservation list for an iPad 3G 64GB at the local Apple Store two weeks ago. I decided to drop by the store today. They showed me that there were 233 names on the reservation list for the iPad 3G 64GB model. And - they are only getting 6 of that model in each day. They could not tell me where I was in the queue.
