If you, like me, hope to submit universal applications to Apple the opening of the iPad app store before March 27th, you may be interested in this information which I got from Apple:

Thank you for your inquiry.

We are accepting iPad Only or Universal applications built with the iPhone SDK 3.2 Beta 5 for a quick review on application readiness. Universal applications may be updates to existing iPhone application, however if you have critical bug fixes, please submit through the normal review process using iPhone SDK 3.1. The readiness review is not acceptance of the application since the application will need to be recompiled on iPhone SDK 3.2 GM once available.

So basically, although Apple said in their "press release" that you cannot submit universal applications before March 27, you can actually do so, provided that you are willing to wait until Apple releases it for the iPad. I also read some comments on Apple's developer forum that support this today. Sounds like a good deal to me.

... Now if only I could get that universal app ready before Saturday!
