Bad news for folks who want a new iPad, but haven't pre-ordered it just yet: Apple's website indicates that it'll be?two to three weeks before the shiny new toy is shipped to you.
When Apple initially began taking pre-orders for the new iPad, the shipping date for the device matched its release date ??March 16.?As Reuters explains, that date shifted to March 19 over the weekend, thanks to "stronger-than-expected demand."
And now there's not even a precise shipping date anymore. Just a simple note that it'll take "2-3 weeks" for any new?iPad pre-orders to ship.
This iPad release doesn't mark the first time we've seen Apple re-adjust the shipping dates on product?pre-orders, of course. Similar (and temporary) product shortages occurred when the iPad 2 and iPhone 4 were released as well.
Oh, and keep in mind that this shipping delay should not affect you if you pre-ordered your iPad prior to the shipping date change.?
