Stores are NOT selling out

Best Buy in Portland Oregon has "plenty", partly because of only 20 people in line when they opened. They handed out tickets to those in line and when the store opened they stopped. For the 20 minutes I was there about 10 more people came in. I called the Pioneer Place Apple Store (downtown) and they were swamped.
San Jose, CA - Curtner (Apple Store)
Just came from there.
They sold 25 16GB already. (Mostly all in the morning) Sold out.
16 - 32 GB
4 - 64 GB.
The store had 60 of them total. I played around with it for about 30 minutes. Truly enjoyed all the comments from the walking customers. (sarcasm)
I did enjoy the iMac though. I need a desktop and I think this will be it for me now. Going to take the wife to BB to check both the iPad and 21.5 iMac out.
3G...when will you be released.

yea... sadly, there's probably a fanboy our there sweating bullets because his locale stores are sold out... doubt you could mark it up much at all, seems more like a hassle :/
The apple store in Cincinnati @ the Kenwood Mall had iPad models available as of 3PM today.
Though, I did snap a photo of Dave Chappelle walking in to pick up his order.
Post your picture of Dave Chapelle please . . . that's (Cincinnati) my old hometown
I miss the Apple Store at Kenwood but it's only 40 miles away
And... iPads are indeed being offered on eBay with some markup
It looks like the hype will not last long
I just walked the Pentagon City store an hour ago and walked out with a 64GB in under 5 minutes...
Well they started giving out the reservation passes for them at 9am to the people in line, so even though they didn't officially open until 10am, they had already given out all the reservation passes by 9:40am.
got the second to last one at 12:30pm at the bb in Fairview Heights, IL. They only had 2 - 64GB's left. Rep said they went pretty fast. Not sure how many they had in the beginning, but there were 6-7 people eyeing them so I jumped in and had him snag one

He was actually pretty cool, shook hands with anyone who recognized him and wasn't a jerk at all. Apparently had an order in for several iPads and a 3:00 PM genius appointment.
Got my 64g at Best Buy in Kansas City (Tiffany Springs for those in the area). Only 6 or 7 people looking at them when I got there around 11:30am.
They said they had plenty of them when I bought mine. No accessories though. Said they would not have those until Monday.

Go to BB and play around with it....I spent about 30 minutes with one. Got me over the excitement of getting one until my 3g comes in.
It makes sense, he means that the line was 30 deep by 9:40 am, so they pretty much sold out by then.
...iThink?

HAHA THATS AWESOME!
Thanks for sharing!
I called up my local Best Buy at about 5:00 pm, and they said they had at least fifteen of each model in stock. Got to the store about six, and walked out with my new 32gb iPad
I certainly DO hope that Apple got enough iPads into retailers so all of the eBay opportunists find that they can't make a profit on them! Why pay a premium on eBay when you can walk into an Apple Store or Best Buy and get one?!

So I see alot of posts about BB. What about the Apple stores though. People report back. I have been out of town and am hoping to pick one up tomorrow afternoon, but wondering if they are selling out or what.

My local Apple store is closed Sunday for Easter.
