No camping for new iPads outside Apple HK's store

The article said these notices are put up around IFC Mall. It also pointed out that it doesn't stop people (or mainly scalpers) camping outside though. It's online reservation and pick-up, but it would be interesting to see if these scalpers could get their hands on the new iPad, and how much they would sell them on for.
