On January 27, 2010 Steve Jobs unveiled a new product that would revolutionize computing: The iPad.
Then on April 3, 2010 Apple finally launched the iPad 1 and I was there! Since I didn’t preorder one I went to the my closest Apple Store at the Brandon Mall in Florida. I arrived right before 7:00 a.m. and waited until the store opened at 9:00 a.m for the iPad 1 lauch. See my photo essay of this memorable moment in Apple history below.

I was excited to be at the front of the line and optimistic that I would be able to buy an iPad on launch day. For the record, my goal was to get a iPad 1 Wi-Fi with 16 GB of memory.
