iPad 3 ship times slip back
Weeks to wait now
Order an iPad 3 now and you're not going to get one when the new tablet officially goes on sale, on Friday, 16 March.
Apple's UK website is currently listing the ship window for both black and white iPad 3s, be they Wi-Fi only or Wi-Fi and 4G, as "2-3 weeks".
So you're unlikely to get one without queuing round the block at your nearest Apple store until 26 March.
The new Apple TV, also out on the 16th, is likewise some way off, though Apple's shipping estimates put it at "1-2 weeks" away from dispatch. ®

The UK preorders sold out on Friday, and it's been "2-3 weeks" since then.
And there were 2 slavering idiots / ifans camped outside the Regent St store when I went past yesterday.
