The calendar says spring is here, but looking around our main headquarters in Waitsfield it’s still a bit of a winter wonderland. As New Englanders we are all too familiar with the reality that the seasons don’t always accurately follow what the calendar indicates, and this year it’s no exception. I do admit I am a little jealous of my southern friends who are already sharing stories of spring flowers blooming, windows wide open, and the smell of fresh spring air.
The big buzz in all of our retails stores right now is the long-anticipated arrival of iPad 2. Here in Waitsfield, in the days leading up to the official release, anticipation was high. At exactly 5pm on March 11th we began selling iPad 2, and customers eagerly lined up in all our stores hoping to be one of the lucky few who went home with a new iPad. In the weeks since the release, demand is still very high, and while we can’t always fill customer requests right away, shipments are steadily arriving each week and orders are being filled daily. Accessories are beginning to arrive as well; the Apple Smart Covers have arrived, and we expect other manufacturers to have products available soon.
