iPad 2 sells out in Australia, UK

Does a surfeit of marsupials make up for a deficit of iPad 2s? Australian resellers have apparently run out of stock across the entirety of that antipodean country, leaving would-be buyers without information about when supplies will be replenished.

There are still reportedly plenty of kangaroos available if you're willing to head outside the cities, or if you're willing to go more Eutherian with your choices, rabbits. Authorities strongly warn potential buyers that wild fauna are not a proper substitute for technology.

iPad 2 lines formed around the globe this past weekend as hopeful customers queued up to purchase the newly launched device. It also sold out in the UK.
