Being a geek has its challenges.
The new iPad went on sale today. Can't get one where I live, and I was at work anyway.
Had a friend in a city who was waiting in line in the early morning offer to get me one. That would mean I would have one, but that it would be 500km away.
How do I get one into my hands? Well, we'll be in Victoria for a few days soon. Perhaps I can just walk in and pick one up.
Fat chance. They'll be sold out.
I could order one from Apple. That should arrive in 2-3 weeks.
The short answer is that I can't get one faster than that. Would I like one sooner? Yes. Can I wait a few weeks? Yes, again.
No real rush.
I am a 68 year old retired teacher living on the west coast of Canada. I spent over 30 years as a student of Karate until my knees stopped liking it. My current passionate activity is Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, which I've been at for about 13 years.
