iPad Pre-Orders Sold Out, Demand has gone through the strotosphere.

Demand for the new iPad has gone ballistic, through the roof, into the stratosphere. Fill in your own version here ….
Luckily you will still be able to line up outside an Apple store and get one, but pre-orders have been sold out. Demand is been huge.
So looks like Apple has another winner on it's hands and everyone else is left running around scrounging up the odd crumb or too off the floor.
The only "real" competition I see coming will be Tablets with Windows 8 on. But they are a way off and who knows how well received these will be. It's made it so much harder now that 16gb iPads 2's have dropped by $100 USD. As long as Apple can get it's supply chain going at full speed and supplying it's stores with the new iPad and the iPad 2 it should forge ahead and possibly even increase it's share of the tablet market over the next few months.
Time, as always, will tell. Still, maybe Google will pull one out of the bag and make (or should I say get someone else to make) a decent tablet. Google has stated that they will have their own branded Tablets soon.
