Did you try calling UPS to see if you get a different answer than what is in the email?

No, I didn't call them, but I talked to the delivery man earlier today. We've actually had packages delivered here for the past two days, and I ran like a mad woman to try and catch him before he drove off yesterday. But I was faster today. :) He didn't act like he'd heard of the iPad before, but he did confirm that we don't have Saturday delivery. He said the closest area to us with Saturday delivery is a town twenty minutes away. He could see how disappointed I was, so he offered to meet me somewhere on his route earlier in on Monday so I would get it earlier in the day....which was nice, but since I've waited so long already I guess a few more hours won't kill me.

Is it safe to post order numbers? I shrunk the window so I wouldn't have to take the time to block y personal info.

I didn't mean for you to post your order number, just asking if it was on there. But from one of your other screen captures, it looks like it did reference your order number.

I hate to add more rumors to the mix, but some people who live in rural places said yesterday that when they called UPS to ask about Saturday delivery that they were told that UPS would be offering expanded Saturday delivery outside of their normal process for this Apple launch. No hard facts; just what was reported here.

Oh, my nerves. Maybe I shouldn't make plans to leave the house Saturday after all...
 
I am so stoked!

Just got a telephone call from UPS asking if I was going to be home on Saturday because they had a delivery to make!!! She told me she had a call list a mile long to plow through!

We dont usually get Saturday delivery in the Sticks, so I am very, very surprised!
 
UPS tracking very odd...

A couple of days ago it said that it was currently is Louisville with some internal activity. Then it had some weird problems with customs. (apple holding paperwork) Finally it said that it would be 10 minutes away from me at 9 am the next morning. That morning I checked the status and it said billing and scan. It showed that until a hour ago, it now says "Guangzhou, CN -- departure scan." Find it very odd...:confused: However excited to get my iPad saturday!

iPad has landed in US (i think) : http://www.flightstats.com/go/Fligh...e=5X&flightNumber=71&departureDate=2010-04-01

Getting the exact same information you are. Chances are we're in the same batch shipment.

Or better yet, wait until Saturday morning and see if you get the all powerful "OUT FOR DELIVERY" scan :)

Now that I am calmed down a bit from my "Magical & Revoluntionary" email saying I will get it Monday; I too will plan to track it Saturday morning before I leave for the weekend. And... vacation day Monday it is!
 
Here is my updated shipping status, for some reason it is in Hong Kong?

Got the same thing. This actually is good news. I take this as it's actually on a plane from China to the US...plenty of time to get out for delivery on Sat.
 
Help!

Can someone please call UPS for me and ask them if they have YOUR address? If they have yours, then they don't have mine...

24 hours ago you were feeling okay about this. And now you're worried again??

Haha I am and I'm not. I am not anymore because I called UPS just now and they said they just got the address from Apple, but they don't know if it will be here on Saturday. It left china at 4:10 AM GuangZhou's time, so im guessig it will. Can you track the plane for me? I dont know how...
 
I got the email from Apple on tuesday saying it was shipping and got the tracking number. Then the ups site said the billing info was received on 3/31, no other info. It's been 36 hours roughly and it STILL just says billing info received. It now is saying billng info received, but the date changed to 4/2. It hasn't even shown a location. Apple said I was going to get it on the 3rd, but I'm certainly curious about that happening since it's Thursday night and it still hasn't moved from China!! Is there a chance I get it on Saturday if it hasn't even left China left?? It's now 9 pm EST on Thursday and it has to come to N.NJ
