The Apple iPad will be sold in Best Buy retail outlets and “select” other retail locations (we wrote previously about the device already listed on Amazon.com). The news comes via Apple Insider which is quoting Tim Cook and his statements at a Goldman Sachs led conference event held yesterday in San Francisco. Long story short, Cook said the iPad launch will resemble the iPhone sales programs already proven to work well.

On Release Date:
This one is going to be short (we may have to revisit this if the release date slips):
- iPad Wi-Fi models Release Date: Shipping in late March.
- iPad 3G models Release Date: Shipping in April.
Anyhow, that’s what is currently posted at the homepage (http://www.apple.com/ipad/) – stay tuned – I’ll be tracking this and posting as we learn specifics about iPad availability on Amazon and Best Buy (please comment and post info on specific retailers if you have it available. You can contact me via the link in the main meny.)
