Although it came early to an address or two yesterday, Apple’s “magical” tablet is officially available today in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Switzerland and the UK.
Many of these countries report long lines in front of stores. As was the case in the U.S., some fans even spent the night in front of an Apple store to be one of the first to buy an iPad.
This seems to be especially true for Japan, where the iPhone is by far the most popular smartphone on the market. Initial interest promises a similar fate for the iPhone’s big brother.
According to recent reports, the iPad is sold out at most Apple stores, and some estimates say that Apple is selling 200,000 iPads per week. If this first day of international sales is any indication, Apple’s biggest problem in the following months concerning the iPad will be ensuring it has enough devices in stock.
