This morning the official Apple web site for new iPad orders has switched from showing ship dates of March 19 to showing 2 to 3 week product delays. While I don’t dispute the popularity of new iPad – I also believe Apple is the master of using scarcity as a marketing tactic to drive increased demand for their products.
