iPad Immigration Begins

Like kids tracking Santa’s route from the North Pole, anxious consumers are following shipments of iPads from the factory in Shenzhen, China to their front doors and store shelves this weekend.

Email notices went out yesterday informing customers who had pre-ordered a wifi-only iPad that their product was shipping.  Also on Monday, a report from Morgan Stanley suggested Apple’s  suppliers forecast  2.5 million units will be sold in the first three months.  iPads will go on sale at Apple retail stores on Saturday, with some additional inventory made available to select Best Buy Stores.
