I pre-ordered a new iPad 3rd generation on launch day last week and have not been billed for it.

My debit card was used and a pending transaction of the full purchase price was visible on my bank account until yesterday. Here's my confusion: the iPad was marked "shipped" yesterday by Apple and I received a shipping notification from FedEx, but I have not been charged. The money is still in my account and when I called Apple Store Support, I was told they've already charged me and it wouldn't have shipped without my account being debited.

Why is the money still in my acct/why did Apple turn over my iPad to FedEx without charging me?
 
It can take up to three days for the money to show up as paid from your account. Don't worry that Apple haven't taken your money before shipping.
