Who's joining the queue for iPad 2 on Friday then?

[Speed]

What time did it go up. Did it initially say 2-3 weeks? Might just leave the online order and queue up tommorow

00:30 and yes, it has always said 2-3 weeks. Only way I could get an order in was with 1-click, doing it the other way doesn't seem to work.

I've seen the bloody "Opps... An error has occurred during your session. Please return to the Store Menu to continue shopping." about 20 times now.

The site is actually running quite quickly which is odd, guess something like the order database can't take the load.

Nope, got a screenshot of the reference though. Hopefully it will update and put my mind at ease at some stage.

Yeah did the same thing, I'm thinking that if it has managed to produce an order number then it must have gone through?

Hopefully yeah, or it may be a case that 1-click orders are queued for processing. God knows...

anyone having trouble ordering?

Yup, twitter is awash with people complaining they can't order.

I guess this is what happens when you host on one of these:

Ok I did the 1-Click thing, see if it works

TBH if I didn't get so hooked on the V1 I purchased a few weeks back (and the great new price!) then I prob wouldn't have bothered. I can wait a few weeks for delivery

Same.

Worth pointing out that the 1-Click method takes 90 minutes before it processes, which from a sales point of view is just silly... lol

 

[Rossdh]

No! I got to the payment page and went and clocked place order and it gave me the "Ooops error occured!"

 

[Jambo]

Awww 2-3 weeks sucks, I want it before the 1st April. I don't know if I can bring myself to queue. Plus I don't know my PIN for my business Visa.

 

[JediFragger]

Yeah but I didn't wanna be trying all night. At least this way the order is in and the onus is upon them to process

Yeah good point, it does however appear orders are going through normally now however.

 

[JediFragger]

LOL, just my luck

 

[Rossdh]

well that hour of trying just paid off! just ordered my 64gb 3g

 

[Rameses]

Might walk past the Regent Street store after work - won't queue up though

haha you said word 'work', that made me lol.

----

MR forum has a few threads on 'meetups' etc and details of when people are queuing...kinda wish I was going too but once you've been to one launch party you've been to all.

I still hold on to the fact I was in the top ten people first into Regent Street when the original iPhone was announced.

Security held a spot for me while I went and sat in a coffee shop, result!

 

[Totality]

The order I placed last night when the NZ store opened has shipped... Well part of it has! The cover lol. Both were saying 2-3 weeks as soon as the store opened and the cover is still saying that but has just shipped. Here's hoping the ipad will ship too otherwise I'll feel a bit stupid sitting about for 2-3 weeks with just a cover. The NZ store is now showing a 3-4 week delay on orders as its 3pm so 12 hours after the selling started.

After about 8 "Ooops" I finally managed to place my order.
