Just about to order 39 iPads from Apple as an EDU. How can I get a list of serial numbers, network addresses and data card numbers? After purchase of course. Without firing up each one and reading the numbers? Can I look them up online, or can Apple supply a list?
Thanks,
John

We just went through 450+ after our admin roll out and student roll out. Apple gave us nothing and their documentation on collecting the information was crap!
This should help you.

With this guys changes so it's not iPad2 centric...
grep -r -h -A 5 deviceSerialNumber ~/Library/MobileDevice/Devices | sed -n '/^$/!{s/<[^>]*>//g;p;}' | tr -d '\011' | sed 's/://g' | grep -v -e deviceSerialNumber -e deviceType -e deviceWiFiMACAddress -e -- | awk '{printf("%s%s", $0, (NR%3 ? "\t" : "\n"))}' | pbcopyI was able to bulk collect the information for all iPads I plugged into the computer with iPhone Configuration Utility running and export it to CSV for inventory/network access guy.
List of network address, MEID, serial etc for bulk iPad purchase?
