Gonna be a very long wait!
Much to Steve’s disappointment, I have been fortunate enough to nab myself an iPad during today’s pre-orders.
As you can see I got the 16GB Wi-Fi version and I have since ordered the case for it is as well. The camera attachment wasn’t available on the store today, so i’ll have to wait for that (unless it comes out before it is available here) and I will also wait for the docks and other accessories to come to New Zealand before getting them.
I have family in the States so it will be delivered to them on (or around) 3rd April and they are going to express it to New Zealand. So keep your eye on the site and once here we’ll be sure to put it through it’s paces and let you know what we think.
Any devs out there who want to us to test their apps on an actual device before its launch here, just get in touch with us and we’ll be happy to help.
Anyone else order one today? Let us know in the comments below.
You’re a lucky b&$!@$d Dan!

Meh, rather expensive for what it is – a giant iPod. Will be interesting to see how it turns out.

As much as I love to be an early adapter of cool gadgets, I think I’ll wait until the NZ release of the 64GB 3G model before I invest. I’m also mindful of the possibility of a July release of a new iPhone and mine will be two years old then and ready for upgrade. I look forward to reading your review.

I am not a patient man
Have reserved mine at an Apple Store and have a mate who will pick it up for me on April 3rd and either ship it, or another mate who works for Air NZ will bring it depending on their schedule 
can’t wait!

Hi Dan, I am also getting an iPad shipped to some friends in the states who will then ship it down to me. What shipping company are you going to use? And, also, do you have any idea as to how much it will cost?
Cheers,
Chris

I’ll find out who they are using and how much.
Has anyone else heard this before…It came from an openning statmenet to a Stuff article online
“Apple has begun accepting iPad apps for review and approval before the device launches in the US on April 3, several weeks ahead of Australia, which gets the device “late April”. (New Zealand should get the device at about the same time, but this is yet to be officially confirmed).”
New Zealand should get the device at about the same time??..Since when? Is this likely?
