I think going to the Apple Store on launch day is kind of fun

But also, when the iPad launches its like any other day as most people are still there to buy iPhones

I know what you mean, I had to take my Mac in the other day and it was crazy wild busy! I asked the guy helping me why it was so busy and he said "its like this every day". Not my idea of fun.
 
Education discount shouldn't make a difference. Mine is still saying processing and I'm also in the UK. As long as I get it for the weekend I'll be happy! Mine also says 22nd-23th. But I was told it's more likely to be near Wednesday than near Friday.

Ah okay! Thanks. :) Well here's hoping both of us get them before next week.

And I do hope they attempt to deliver mine on Wednesday in that case. I'm at Uni on Thursday with work immediately after, so I won't be around to sign for it.. But sods law of course means that's when they'll deliver it, so! That's what I'll be expecting. :p
 
Hhmmm... the people who's status have changed to prepare shipment I've noticed are WiFi devices. Any changes from those who ordered cellular models?
 
Mine is LTE and is still processing. Also, I placed my order the minute the store came back up, and my delivery estimate has always been Oct 23-27.

Same here, but 64GB. Coming to the SF Bay Area.


64GB, Gold, Cellular: 10/23-10/27 2-day shipping

Still stuck on processing - I hope I didn't manage to order another unicorn. My SG/64GB/6+ iPhone was apparently the most popular and in the shortest supply. I wonder if I stupidly ordered the rarest one again? I won't start to panic until the end of the day :)
 
Just checked and mine has switched to preparing for shipment. Smart case will be delivered tomorrow. iPad looks to be Wednesday assuming it ships from Harrisburg, PA.
 
UK Delivery?

Anyone in the UK that has a shipping status that has changed to 'Preparing For Shipping' rather than 'Processing'

Removing the 32GB storage option made the 64GB option, the best choice by default. 16GB is too little, and could be used for people that just do light browsing, and not a lot of downloading apps and things. The 64GB is just right, enough room for apps,music, and other downloads, for the more than average user. The bigger 128 is a lot of room, and for the heavy user, like having work and personal things on there. But the price point of the 64GB uses to be the premium selection, and now its centered to be the most ordered of both iPad and iPhone. Essentially more is not less when it comes to apples storage space on these devices.
 
Air 2 (Gold/128GB/wi-fi) is preparing to ship. :D I bet a lot of us will have our new iPads in the next couple of days. Mine's shipping to NoVA
 
Is there anybody with a delivery date of 24-28th preparing for shipment yet?

I did order a day late nothing yet. Credit card hasn't been charged either.
