iPad Air hunters have a new tool that searches Apple's retail store availability for fresh stock. November 1, 2013 11:02 AM PDT (Credit: Josh Miller/CNET) On the hunt for Apple's new tablet today or in the near future? There are still plenty of models available both online and in stores, but it might not stay that way long. Click to enlarge. (Credit: CNET) Developer Mordy Tikotzky, who created a tool for finding stock and being alerted to new deliveries of iPhone 5S models last month, has a new version for iPads. It checks all of Apple's stores near a particular zip code, so that you don't have to go through a similar, but more complex process on Apple's online store. Currently Apple is listing all but the 128GB Space Gray iPad on T-Mobile as available to ship in time for a November 4 delivery in the US. That 128GB model is listed as shipping in 5 to 10 business days. Those times could get pushed back as sales progress. Along with the tracker for the Air, Tikotzky's put together a tracker for the iPad Mini with the Retina Display, which won't go on sale until later this month, and is expected to be in very short supply. Also planned is an alerts tool for iPad Air hunters that will notify them when a particular model comes back into at any particular store.
