iPad has been ordered!

I got mine preordered. Yay!

The only thing that concerns me is that there was no “Pickup at store” option for shipping. They did say the delivery date would be April 3 though.

Can’t wait! kk

There was a reserve option for you to reserve one at the store. That was the "pickup at store" option...then you just pay for it at the store.

I must have missed the Reserve option, I only saw 2 shipping choices…Free or Standard for $14.

Anyway, I’m good with the free delivery on the 3rd. It’ll save me some gas

I am lucky to live about 5 miles from my Apple store ... I can't wait to pick mine up on the 3rd.

I reserved one for in-store pick-up. I figure I'll get the $499 wifi only model for a few reasons.
1. Its the 1st gen and I don't want to spend more money on a device that if I like it, I'll be upgrading next? year.
2. See #1 - this one will get passed to my hubby when I get a new one.
3. I plan on using it like a big, phoneless iPhone, if I need 3G, I'll use my iPhone
4. I think I may prefer the HP Slate if the lack of flash becomes bothersome--I'm always on Facebook
5. I'm already in negotiations with the hubby to get a new HD Tv AND a Wii. I'm getting the hairy eyeball on the tech spending.

Apparently there were a lot of orders this morning. My email confirmation took over 2 hours to arrive (usually it's less than 2 minutes).

AppleInsider says they sold over 50,000 in the first 2 hours.
