Apple has finally managed to balance supply and demand for the iPad 2 and now the shipping time for the popular tablet is 24 hours. In other words – if you order the iPad 2 today, it will be shipping from the factory within one day. It may take a few days longer to actually arrive at your doorstep, but that’s not a biggie.
Ever since launching the iPad 2 on March 11, 2011 – Apple had hard time meeting the overwhelming demand. Initially, users had to wait for 4-5 weeks and then in April that decreased to the 1-2 week level. Now the equilibrium has been reached or perhaps not that many people want the iPad 2 now. I guess those who crave for one, grabbed it in the first few months and now we expect the slow season until Christmas when I would assume things will get “back to normal.”
Anyway, if you want the iPad 2 and you still haven’t grabbed one – now may be the time to “push the button.” Or wait for September when other OEMs will launch their stuff, too. It’s your call…

The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him.

He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
