Engadget review.

Wow can't wait to update my iPhone to 4.3 looks like the browser speeds are improved by alot.
Also figured the back camera would suck.

I keep trying to decide if I want one of these or any tablet device for that matter. I know it would be great for sitting around the house surfing things like forums and news sites but I really can't see myself using it for much more than that.

Not sure how for you have to drive, but you'll end up paying the tax in gas, if you have a ways to drive.

The original ipad had lines as well...and I'm sure 2 will also...but I'm not expecting 2's release to be as crazy.
My mother is going to upgrade to a 2...so we may venture out later today and see what its like.

The marketers at Apple are genius.
1) Let's not let the fanboys be able to have an online order arrive on 3/11, that way they will go to the stores and make long lines. The press will love it. We won't even turn on ordering until 3/11.
2) Call at 3/11 1am Pacific, Wake UP asshole! The fanboys are still ordering. They really don't want to leave Mom's basement. Shit, change delivery to 2-3 weeks. That will get them to the stores and make long lines.

I've been doing some research, this seems to be the best solution, although it won't be available until the end of the month:

Pro tip: the lines are pretty long. If you want one today then you better get in line now. There was about 75 people waiting outside one of the local best buys

I got one! I went to BB at 5 and it was line out the door. I wasn't feeling that so I went to walmart. They only got one and some fool waited waited for 1.5hrs to get that one
Then I finished doing my errands and decided to swing by the apple store around 7pm. The line was STILL out door of the mall and down the sidewalk! I wasn't having that either. So I drove home and stopped by the best buy by my house that I bought my iPad at last year. Walked in and they had plenty in stock. They didn't have any of the new ones on display. I asked to see a white one IRL before making a decision, they said they couldn't do that. So I bought a black one instead. I didn't get a smart cover either because I didn't like the colors they had left.So local Best Buy FTW again!
