Are you getting an iPad 3? If so, how?

The iPad 3/HD will be introduced on the 7th and will likely cost the same, but will you be getting one? I'd like to know how many people will, and why they are (or aren't). I don't yet have an iPad, so I'll be getting one, but I'm not sure how I'll get it. We do not yet know the release date, but previous release dates followed the launch by a little over a week, which would put the launch at about March 6-9. I might be out of internet range and unable to order one, which really sucks, but I'd like to hear where you are getting yours. The online Apple Store? An Apple Store? Best Buy? eBay? The options are endless, but I'm sure everyone would like to know about the policies and potential hassles of each store. A quick rundown:

Online: You have to wait

An Apple Store: Massive crowds

Best Buy: Limited inventory, large crowds

eBay: Above retail price, possible shipping wait
