iPad 2 sold out!

It is estimated that Apple sold 500,000 iPad 2′s in the first weekend, even more than the 300,000 original iPad’s sold in the first weekend last year. Stores all over the country are sold out and the estimated shipping delays on Apple’s website are 4-5 weeks!

A poll by Piper Jaffray reveals that 70% of the new iPad’s were sold to new buyers. While Apple stores and Best Buys all across the nation are receiving shipments for sale they immediately. So you have three options if you’re hoping to get a brand new iPad 2; place an online order and wait 4-5 weeks, stalk your local stores to try to nab one of the new shipments or purchase one from resellers scalping iPads at as much as a 200% markup. Yikes!
