iPad pre-orders live in UK

As the clock hits 12:00am local time, Apple is bringing international Apple Online Stores in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Switzerland, and the UK back up with their iPad pre-orders ready to rock.

If yours hasn't updated yet and you just can't wait, keep hitting refresh on the hour every hour and its bound to show up eventually.

And when you do get your order on, drop a comment and tell us which country and what model you get, and whether its for delivery or if you're reserving to go pick it up at an Apple Retail Store near you (provided that's an option in your area).

Then sit back, relax, and if you're anything like me tear your hair out waiting for it show up on May 28.

    Just pre-ordered MY iPad... Decided to go for the 64gb WiFi UK model. Saved myself £100 plus line rental for 3G using mywi to tether. A risk but probably worth it. :)
