Just like we saw in the U.S. and other countries, hundreds of people lined up at Apple stores to be the first to get an iPad. Unlike in the other countries, Chinese consumers had to tough it out through a big rain storm to get their tablet at Apple's Beijing store. (Shanghai was dry.)
Apple handed out coffee, water, and umbrellas to the dedicated customers, says AppleInsider. AppleInsider also reports customers were in line for three days just waiting to get an iPad. And this is just the wifi iPad, the iPad 3G is coming soon.
