True, and good point on the international market. Anyway, I wasn't saying it didn't happen. Just that it's not some crazy, hot black market item that's being hoarded and sold for 2-3 times MSRP or anything like the hot products around x-mas etc.

Though I do think we would see that if it was around x-mas as people are insane about getting the gifts people want, and the iPad would be one of the (if not the) hot item if it came out in the holiday season.

Other times of the year people are willing to wait--especially when it's only a couple weeks and the economy is still tough for many.
