“Best Buy has sold out of the iPad at all 673 of its U.S. stores with Apple shops. In contrast, Apple stores are maintaining stock,” Brooke Crothers reports for CNET.
“‘We expect to have iPad inventory replenished at these locations by Sunday,’ said company spokeswoman Paula Baldwin,” Crothers reports.

Agreed.
BiteMe:
You’re poison and un transparently stupid to boot…
When….
When textbooks come to iPad.
You can almost smell the fear when the trolls come around. Less than 2 percent of iPads have some wifi issue or their router does, and now the cry is “crappy thing won’t connect”. Go over to PC World and read posts of sheer hate!
Got to love it. They know all they have is HP Slate. Fear.
@ET what’s a rummer? I’ve heard of rumor, but…
BB SOLD OUT of iPads… oh well, guess we missed it!
Fact check… who is to say BB at one point in time didn’t show in it’s computer inventory records to have zero iPads available. However, good thing for us, manufacturing and todays shipping is a 24 hour operation that allows for constant restocking!

I purchased mine at BestBuy because of of Reward Zone membership. The purchase should garner me a nice 10 buck coupon back.
I managed to waltz into my BestBuy at 5:30 in the afternoon to pick my 64Gig iPad up. No lines, no clapping, no crowds. It was as easy as swinging by a deli and picking up milk. Much more expensive of course….
Our local BB sold out three times on Saturday. They received three separate shipments and sold all of them each time.
I suspect that Sammy isn’t his real name or we wont be seeing again come 3 months.
The Best Buy store I bought mine at sold through all 70 they had originally received by Monday morning.
As for the question of why would I buy there instead of the Apple Store…To earn Reward Zone points and also to use up a gift card I got as a Christmas gift.
best buy manager in my town told me they sold out the first day and that they already had a second shipment sold out, and the third shipment was expected today or friday. However the majority of people are asking for release date of the 3g models.
Are you retards serious? The apple forums have hundreds of complaints about Wifi problems.
I bet half you wholes don’t even have iPads. It must suck o be you, but don’t take it out on me.
I find it interesting that this site NEVER reports anything negative about apple products when other apple sites post all apple news bad or good. You have the nerve to call me a troll when half you Kool-Aid drinkers don’t even have an iPad.
For your information, idiots I have a time capsule as my router. Why don’t you get your heads out of your asses and read the apple forums since you are cluless wannabes. Or maybe everyone at the apple forums are trolls too?
Morons.
Biteme,
oooo…. soooo tough…. you can use words like “idiots” and “morons”……. and why are you calling us “wholes”
and even IF …. there are “hundreds” of complaints on the forums, Apple sold hundreds of THOUSANDS of iPads….. maybe those “idiots” should learn how to use their equipment….
see, I can flame too, its easy when no one knows who you are…
and BTW, this is a pro-mac website. OF Course it’s going to be biased…. I like how random people try to come in here, all angry, and “enlighten us” about the rest of the world, like we don’t know what’s going on…. Most of the people who post here are thoughtful, witty, intelligent (sometimes dirty) and I enjoy reading this site… (and I read it every day!) except when trolls like you come along.
so if you don’t like what you see here, Get lost, and don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
Untrue…
BestBuy Houston Galleria had them yesterday, but not all models.
Unpleasant as biteme and his message may be, the problem with the antenna(?) or signal(?) or SOMETHING is #1 on Apple’s iPad hit list. Over a hundred tickets opened! That’s one for every ~2,500 sold.
The iPad has several “weaknesses” when compared even to a weak netbook. Those were planned. Those let you gain several bonuses that kick the best netbook to the curb. But without your connectivity, you lose much of those benefits.
This will be fixed. By v2.0 at the latest.
The wi-fi problem will be fixed via a software update before the end of April. It’s not a hardware issue.
sold out and all those silly anti ipad suff I’m reading elsewhere like iPads languishing. Example:
“The actual sales figures might be lower than reported — channel partners might still have product in stock, and Best Buy (NYSE: BBY) stores carrying the iPad are reported to have ample supplies.”
“reports of units languishing on store shelves “
—-
some people just have these negative thing about iPad (or maybe Apple) and do little research for their articles.
Actually, most of you obsessed fanboys on this site are inarticulate, intolerant of dissent and frankly, rather stupid. Any valid concern or opinion that could interpreted as a criticism in any way gets immediately shouted down, and the poster branded as a “troll.”
And now you want to suggest that I’m the one with the problem because I don’t know how to use the iPad WiFi even though Apple has acknowledged the problem. I suppose that the two iMacs I had to go through that had flickering screens and yellow-glassed displays were also my fault.
There is a difference between being pro-Mac and being retard-Mac. I’ll let you figure out which one you are. You apparently think you are an intelligent, witty, and thoughtful person.
And most of you probably don’t even own an iPad, yet you are siting here trying to be patronizing to those of us who do and are having issues. Get a clue, and maybe actually go buy some Apple products, stop being a fanboy poser and maybe you’ll understand.
@ bite me
oooo…. did I touch a nerve? you take life way too seriously. And if you think your “tough Talk” is going to indimidate me…
And by the way, if you have so many problems with Mac products, why are you posting here. that won’t fix your faulty iMacs. Silly poster.. it’s called Customer Support.. that would be apple.com…
you are a loser, and idiot, a retard, a moron, and a TROLL. And a good troll at that , too. See, you got me to bite TWICE….
oh, and don’t buy any lottery tickets anytime soon, or walk under ladders, or let black cats cross your path. Judging by your Apple experiences, you have very BAD luck. But rejoice, you can always buy a HP Slate…. or a Joo Joo…. etc…..
now, shouldn’t you be fixing that Wifi problem…..
