Best Buy Will Carry iPad At Launch

by Michael Comeau on March 29, 2010

You’ll have at least one more choice than the Apple (AAPL) store if you plan on picking up an iPad on its April 3rd launch date.

Apple just confirmed that most Best Buy (BBY) stores will have Apple iPads in stock beginning at 9 a.m. – a smart move considering that there could be some huge crowds lined up at Apple stores.

In fact, if you’re in the market for an iPad, you just may want to skip the Apple store and get to a Best Buy at open where the crowds will probably be a bit lighter. Back when the iPhone launched, Apple stores were absolutely mobbed, and given the massive media attention accorded to the iPad, things could be even worse this time around.

Now one thing that’s interesting is that the iPad hasn’t shown up at Amazon for pre-order just yet, possibly because Amazon prices Apple products as much as 10% below Apple’s asking price.
