Just bought the watch at Target. With $100 gift card thrown in. Lots of people getting Ipads. Unless they have more inventory coming, they will not have any on Friday.

Apple TV goes on sale tomorrow at Target. My buddy actually convinced them to honor the ATV sale for tomorrow, today. Though HHGregg has it on sale for $115 on their website right now for the 32G.
