iPads Reportedly in Short Supply Across the US
If you've been looking to get your hands on an iPad, you might be waiting a bit longer than you expected. Apple's iPad supply chain can't keep up with demand according to some technology analysts.Gene Munster, technology analyst for Piper Jaffray, recently contacted 50 Apple Stores. Of the ones he contacted, 74% were completely sold out of iPads, and 26% only had "some" Wi-Fi models. None of the stores had any 3G models.Online orders are also taking a hit. Many online orders have shipping times between seven and ten days.Munster first estimated that Apple could sell 1.3 million iPads this quarter, but he now believes that his estimate is short. Recent analysts reports suggest that Apple is selling twice as many iPads as Macs per week.via MacNN
