Following last Friday’s launch of the fourth-generation iPad, Apple has apparently already come close to meeting demand for the new device. As noticed by 9to5Mac, Apple is now listing all Wi-Fi models of the new iPad as “in stock” in the company’s U.S. online store.
The immediate availability appears to extend to a number of Apple’s online stores around the world, including the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, and Singapore. Shipping estimates remain at 3-5 business days in most of Apple’s other online stores for countries where the device has launched, but it is not unusual for changes in Apple’s shipping estimates to roll out to different regions on slightly different schedules.
The iPad mini remains in short supply, with Apple continuing to quote shipping estimates of two weeks for new orders of Wi-Fi models. Cellular-capable models appear to remain on track, with Apple quoting “Mid November” in the United States and “Late November” in other countries.
