Additionally, a reader has spotted that iPad Airs have begun arriving at Walmart locations (see image above and below) and the device seems to have already been placed inside of one-store’s glass casing for iPads. The special $479 price point can be seen on the sticker on the iPad Air’s packaging.

The supply of the new tablet should be plentiful on launch day across the United States. Large Apple Stores are reportedly receiving 500-1000 units of the Air, and resellers are reporting a solid number of iPad Airs on hand for eager customers.
