Best Buy and Toys R' Us Selling iPads on Sunday
For those still looking to buy an iPad 2, Sunday, April 17th may be a good time to try. Both Best Buy and Toys R' Us are advertising iPad 2 availability for that day. Best Buy is featuring a prominent nationwide ad for Sunday promoting the iPad 2 (see above). The promotion appears to be the

Engadget publishes the internal memo describing the promotion.
Meanwhile, 9to5mac reports Toys R' Us is also using the same day to kick off their iPad 2 sales. Toys R' Us was previously rumored to soon begin carrying the iPad 2. Toys R' Us' website now lists locations that will be carrying the iPad 2.
