Thanks, all, for the feedback. Yes, I do, and I might have to arrange that; the problem seems to be they are not available anywhere at the moment. I checked the BestBuy product finder yesterday--and milo.com just now (thank you, k-hoff)--and I couldn't find either a 32 or 64 gb WiFi version in Austin, Nashville, Raleigh, or Richmond. ...only a couple 64gb wifi/3g.

UPDATE: I was finally able to get thru to one of the Apple Stores in Austin and got placed on the reserve. They're completely out of iPads, but if a few 64gb WiFi iPads arrive on the truck between now and July 10--which seems pretty likely--one's mine. (and yes, I can have a friend pick it up if it arrives before I do, but I'm supposed to call and give them the person's name after it arrives. Seems odd/inefficient, but I'm not complaining.)

Enjoy your trip to the States. Not sure I'd pick Austin to visit in July, but...
yeah, it was either Hell or Austin, and hell was booked. Actually, I lived in Austin 10+ years before moving to Europe... and I much prefer visiting in the non-summer months (aka January and February).
