It was rather quick and seamless, no standing in line. My only concern is that they didn't put screen protectors/cases on the iPads. I'm sure they'll be a flurry of broken iPads soon enough.
The use cases for businesses keep going. Small business use I've seen often. The local food truck that come to the city use iPads for transactions if you don't have cash. Most I'm sure also use it for inventory. Hardly an overpriced toy, such claims are....well, you know.
