Users in the rest of Europe (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden), New Zealand, Macau, and Mexico will have to wait until March 23 before they can get their hand on it.

Although the iPad will be released on Friday people who haven’t pre-ordered their device online will probably be disappointed. Apple is reporting that there is now a three week waiting list for pre-ordered new iPads on their online store alone.
If you are going to pick up an iPad in store you’ll have to get your camping gear ready; as with most Apple products there are going to be queues round the block so the earlier you get there the better your chances of getting a device.
For those of you looking to upgrade from an iPad 1 Apple says that they will be reducing the price of the second generation iPads by $100.
