The old axiom that the earliest bird will definitely get the worm is still running very true today. If you are asking for proof, here’s one – if you are among the millions of people planning to get the iPad 2 and failed to wake up at 4:00 AM EST to grab a unit via online, then unfortunately you will have to wait for a couple of weeks before you can finally get one. Why? It is because Apple claims that there will be a slight delay of the shipping (2-3 weeks) on all iPad 2 units. Else, you can take the harder way by ordering them straight from your nearest retail store where the place could be a little crowded. Oh, the price of persistence. Source
