It’s been confirmed that iPad 2 will be on sale at Best Buy March 11, in addition to being sold online at Apple.com and at Apple retail outlets. Walmart will be selling iPad 2 as well but has not released an on sale date just yet.
Best Buy is currently advertising its sale of iPad 2 on March 11 on their website, likely to start selling the same time as in Apple retail stores, 5pm.
