If you don’t have an Apple store in your town and you want to get an iPad from PC World then forget it. iPad wi-fi versions are available in slightly larger quantities than the 3G versions but we’re talking one or two more. If you want a 3G version you need to spend the full £699 on a 64Gb version and you have to be able to travel North – unless you are already North.
We just did a search of the major conurbations Birmingham, London, Liverpool, Newcastle, Cardiff, Manchester, Bristol even Brighton and they’re out of stock practically everywhere.
We tried all versions of the iPad in all the 8 areas above, and in the 50 miles around those areas and these are the results.

Rather tritely PC World have included the iPad in the eReaders section where they sit with Sony and cases from Belkin and Griffin.
