If you’re still having difficulty finding an iPad 2 it might be worthwhile checking on a tracking site like iPad2Tracker.com. It’s still really hard to find one, but they do sporadically pop up. Unfortunately, one of the biggest iPad stories today is the fact that Foxconn is having significant difficulty in manufacturing enough iPads and iPhones, so it doesn’t look good if you don’t already have one.
