Following yesterday's delivery of some early pre-orders of the LTE versions of the iPad mini and fourth-generation iPad to U.S. customers, Apple's three major U.S. carrier partners AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint have all announced that they are beginning sales of the devices today.

Apple has not made any official announcement about availability of the LTE models, and users in our forums are so far reporting scant availability of the devices, particularly the iPad mini, at the company's own retail stores. We did hear from one reader who was able to purchase an LTE fourth-generation iPad at an Apple store late yesterday, but many others are not having luck so far.
Most of Apple's retail stores do not open until 10:00 AM, but some readers have received reports from employees already on-site indicating that availability is very limited, and one reader reports that the company's 24-hour flagship store on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan does not have any LTE iPad mini models at the moment.

The main reason Apple's share price is down may simply be profit taking :eek:
Sorry, a drop of 24% in a month and a half isn't profit-taking.

This thing is simply wonderful. The screen is sharp and bright, the A6X processor is snappier, and surprise - despite going through quite a workout there is no excess heat that I've detected.
Also I find that I like the Lightning connector much better than the obsolete 30-pin connector. I always had a difficult time connectng it to my iPad 3, whereas this new connector is easy and feels secure.
This transaction has exceeded all my expectations, from the early delivery date to the performance of the iPad 4 itself.
Can't wait until Apple releases the iPad Mini with Retina display :)
Was just able to order an iPad mini lte version for pick up in my local apple store! Went live @ 12:01am est
This type of marketing goes against you when the person who's waiting buys another product instead.
The main reason Apple's share price is down may simply be profit taking :eek:There are many reasons Apple's stock value is down almost $200 per share in less than a month. This is at least a small portion of it.
