iPad 2 Shipping Estimates for Online Orders Improve to 2-3 Weeks
Shipping estimates for new online orders of
all iPad 2 models have improved to 2-3 weeks today, down from earlier
3-4 weeks. The new shipping estimates appear to apply in all countries where the iPad 2 is currently shipping.
With Apple releasing its first television commercial for the iPad 2 over the weekend and shipping estimates now improving, it appears that the company is confident enough in its ability to meet demand that it can begin more high-profile marketing campaigns to appeal to a broad base of consumers beyond the early adopters that have so far been soaking up supplies as quickly as they can be replenished.
