I don't think it will be arriving overnight. It's almost impossible to pass customs in that time and every CS rep I spoke to says they are all getting the same shipping, no matter what you see it being called on your page. So, who knows.

Left side of the page, check your shipping method. All are standard shipping unless apple CS changes it.

True, I was told there is only one type of shipping being used and it's all the same speed (not overnight), regardless of what the CS rep put in one's Order Status. Who knows.
 
LMAO- the AV cable they gave me for free 15 minutes ago is now "prepared for shipment" even though my iPad has yet to do so in 6 days.
 
Note that for shipping, there can't be a difference for going from China to the USA. They all ship together on a palette during these rollouts. The palettes then get broken up at particular locations in the USA to go their merry way. This is how it always was. I guess the USA part can go by different shipping methods but I dunno if they really do that for rollouts.
 
Just spoke to CSR Paul. He was very nice, wished he could go to a warehouse, beat down the door and get me an iPad but there was nothing he could do to upgrade the shipping, his screen wouldn't even let him click on any expedited shipping options. Wow, can I give him the extension of a CSR who can do that? He repeated several times that they're being told to say that they will be true to the 3-5 days March 18-25 window. I pointed out several times that there is no way mine will get here by March 18 as it's NOT EVEN PREPPED FOR SHIPPING and as my cover, also shipped from China, is taking NINE DAYS from the date of my shipping notice. He replied that that makes sense but they were being true to the promised window.... blablabla. So that's my story.

did he give yo uanything free? an AV cable? a $100 credit? wi-fi keyboard? dock? etc
 
My CS rep (the latest one, at least) said that she upgraded me to overnight (next business day shipping). My order now shows Shipping Method: Priority. She said that if the iPad happens to ship from the US, I will get it the next day. But if it ships from China, 2-3 days is the best it will do.

Anyone else here order before 1 AM PST and are still in "Not yet shipped"?

IPAD WI-FI 64GB WHITE @ 12:49 AM PDT for me.

He's a bull *******- those CS reps can click on something on that screen that changes what you see for your type of shipping on your Order Status. Mine did. Now, if that translates to actual expedited shipping, I don't know.

Same order. Placed it at 12:46. When I called I didn't yell or get upset just asked some questions and she upgraded my shipping to 2-3 days. I don't want anything free... I just want the ipad I paid for.

Nope. I already got my leather cover for free and also I'm not really looking for a handout although I surely wouldn't turn anything down! What gets me is the expedited shipping BS. Y'all did see the article about Apple reps being told to tell customers "little white lies", right? So is it a white lie that Paul could not upgrade the shipping or that other reps did upgrade it? And in the end, will it really make a difference?

I will keep you posted. I did recieve the Priority shipping when I called but not sure if they actually did anything other than change the words on my order status page to Priority.

how are you guys getting the free stuff ... talked to like 3 ppl (1 female) and all they did was told me bs, about how its first come first serve and how they are sorry mine is not shipped yet. No one offered anything for free. So what are the magic words you used?

I just called and was calm and asked what was taking so long on my order since I was a very early order 12:44 am PST, and they said sorry for the hold up and added the priority shipping.

I got the priority shipping bs too but we all know that's not true.

I was calm, said I was following a forum, and I also said there was one delivered to Boston, same model as mine and that they ordered after me. I told the lady it was a little frustrating hearing stories about that. I had also put a quick word in that people were receiving priority shipping (which I said didn't matter at this point) and were getting credited smart covers. She had to get authorization from a 'higher up' but when back on the line, I received a $100 credit.
