It’s thinner. It’s faster. It’s here. It’s… sold out. “It” is the iPad 2. With about 600,000 iPad 2 units sold in the first three days of shipment — a pace of sales roughly twice as fast as last year’s initial product launch — the iPad can now officially take its place in the pantheon of celebrated phenomena alongside the hula hoop, the Rubik’s cube, Elvis, Marilyn, Beatlemania, Bieber fever, et al. Faster than you can say “I gotta have it,” Apple’s iPad 2 flew off the shelves on Friday and Saturday, dashing any notion (as well as the hopes of more than a few competitors) that the public’s appetite for the device has waned in the past year.
Please. Usain Bolt won the 100 and 200 and was in the relay, but neither he nor anyone else won a 100 or 200 relay as they were not a part of the Olympics. Detracts from your point to get something so oddly wrong. If Bolt were winning a relay, it would prove his TEAM was dominant, but not necessarily that he was. And he was!
There is a 400m and 1600m relay contended in the Olympics.
