Six in line now at Tysons...... School will be out soon and some people will be taking off work early so the line will build up soon..... We are having fun here!!
i'm sure the south shore plaza is prob packed...i wonder how the braintree best buy is?
Syracuse NY? that's where I bought my iPad wifi and they seem like they had enough stock to last a while.. I hope they do the same with the WiFi+3G because I plan on driven' up to get one if my WiFi sells on ebay! Let me know if you find out anything or if u grab one there yourself ehh?
Can you hold a place for me? ;-)
I have to get the cat to eat so I can give him his insulin before I jump on the Beltway to get there...

I'm strangely excited that nobody's answering my question about Best Buy lines and only one guy has mentioned going to Best Buy so far. I am pretty sure the macrumors userbase and the demographic of people who are willing to stand in line for one of these devices is basically the same. The lack of Best Buy chatter makes me think I've got a great shot there. But if I find out otherwise, I'll post here to let others know ... while I walk to the Apple Store.
No offense to anyone, and I'm an admitted fanboy, but do you really think there will be scores of people and sellouts like they had with the iPhones and the non-3G iPads?
This is probably the most expensive ($629-829) products people ever lined up for at an Apple store. Even the first iPhone's highest pricetag was $599.
Mind you, everyone could use a pocketable iPhone, but the iPad is not going to be as ultraportable. I'd be surprised if any line hit over 100. Of course, I'd love to be proven wrong.

Probably like 20 people behind me now, so up to like 40-50 people in the Altamonte Mall in Orlando.
BeyondTheTech, it's hard to say ... I also doubt Apple stores have as many devices in stock as they have with previous major launches. Demand may be lower but supply may also be lower. But it's really all guesswork. I live in one of the 3 richest large counties in the U.S. (and another of the three adjoins ... and the third is elsewhere in my metro area), so I'm one of many with disposable income for gadgets where I live.
