Multiple sources are reporting to us about telephone conversations they’ve had with Apple reps regarding changing their iPad orders from delivery to in-store pickup.
Multiple iPad buyers have been told that in order to do such a change, the delivery order would have to be cancelled and a new in-store pickup order completed, but that iPad orders (which began this morning at 8:30am EST) have been “so overwhelming” that new iPad orders may not be available for in-store pickup on April 3.
Currently, Apple’s online store still states that those who reserve their iPads (Wi-Fi-only) will be able to pick them up at their local Apple Retail Store “between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. on April 3.”
We’ve inquired with Apple, but the company has not yet responded. We’ll update here with more information if and when it becomes available.
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Readers too numerous to mention individually for the heads up.]

Acutally, no they didn’t.. Most analysts have been fairly bullish on the iPad..
I’m not getting one because Billy Gates tells me I need to use a pen, or a keyboard or voice, with my touch to make it useful and to be honest as he has never said when I do which I will have to wait for his second sermon from Mount Lala to enlighten me.
This sort of rumor will be considered “over-exaggerated hype” by those that believe the iPad will fail because of hardware shortcomings and lack of Flash support. The naysayers will never believe that the iPad will actually sell in huge numbers. You watch over the next few days how this overwhelming iPad pre-order story will be dissected and de-bunked instead of just being ignored.
nothing for us Belgians. :-((((

What you say? Most have been bullish? No way. Here is a link 30 analysts that are all very negative. iPad death watch it is called. I don’t know who you have been reading besides MDN.

I can hear the checkout counter now, “Sorry, we are fresh out of iPads. Come back in three weeks.”
I’m getting one, but not until the mad rush is over. I’ve gone through a few of these already and I’m more than content to wait a bit to get mine.
64GB 3G ordered @ 0545 PDT! Now for the month plus wait for the 3G release.
Ordered a couple at 5:32 this morning and a bunch of accessories. No way was I going to risk in-store pickup possible problems, or not knowing how my schedule would work out.
iPad doomed to sell a “shitload” of units in first 3 days. Trolls, analysts, etc. take a hike with your Flash ridden, Pandora infested, Windows sucking friends.
Damn it, I want one. I thought the analysts were anal about it being a failure.
Microsoft has made it clear that they reserve the right to “innovate”. This, of course, means they intend to continue to steal right the hell from under every poor S.O.B. who is foolish enough to show Microsoft their technology.
