Hate lines? The iPad 2 is now officially available for sale through the online Apple’s store in the US (with free shipping).
If you don’t mind the quoted 3-5 day shipping time, you can purchase any of the eighteen new iPad 2 models right away rather than queue up at any one of the retail outlets that will be stocking the new iPad later today.
Starting at $499, the available models include 16, 32 and 64 GB of storage options, with both Wi-Fi only and Wi-Fi + 3G models on Verizon and AT&T.
