Will you be one of them who queuing up for the new iPad 2 this coming Friday? My advise is NO! Don’t waste your time queuing up. Why?
1) If you are working, you need to apply for leave.
2) Need to start queuing very early maybe 6am? Or maybe some even over night or camp there?
3) There’s no discount of special offer stated till now for the early bird buyer.
4) You may end up empty handed without the iPad 2 as there will be a quota set for daily iPad 2 sales.
5) They might be some iPad 2 already reserved for the pre-order ppl and there will be less unit available?
6) Ended up just waste your leave, waste your time, waste your energy?
7) It will be the same if you get it after the launching period and not fighting with others?
You can just order from Apple Store with free shipping and engraving too!

If you think all the above is nothing to you then by all means go ahead and queue and grab your iPad 2 and be a happy Apple customer! =)

P/S : Machines : It is limited for 2 units of iPad 2 per person.

As you know, Apple has just made its second-generation iPad official! The new iPad 2 will be made available at March 11, that’s few days away from now! So if you are targeting for the new iPad 2 then stay tuned! Yes, you can even pre-order the all new iPad 2 in a thinner, lighter design, now! It’s 33 percent thinner and up to 15 percent lighter. I love the iPad 2 Smart Cover! Now iPad is even more amazing!

It features a 1GHz dual-core A5 chip and, finally, cameras, both on the front and rear. The new CPU is said to be up to twice as fast, with graphics performance up to nine times better than on the original iPad. Same battery life with Apple promising 10 hours. Apple’s also launching iOS 4.3 alongside the new iPad.

I will be getting one iPad 2 in my hand soon! Woots!
