64 GB wifi + cellular silver ordered within 10 mins of the store opening still says "processing" with estimated delivery of 10/23 to 10/27.

Frustrating to see some already shipping and others with no movement at all.

Patience is a virtue I guess.
 
Not me... Silver 128 Cellular. My hope is the cellular models are stateside rather than from China which would mean faster shipping.
 
Full charge is now appearing as pending (dated 10/21), not just the authorization $1.00 (dated 10/17). My order still says "processing," but I anticipate that to change to "shipped" by day's end since Apple only charges at start of the shipping period.

The only question now are 1) whether it will ship from a warehouse stateside (presumable PA or TN) or direct from CN. 2) will Apple allow "early" delivery or will we soon start to see the dreaded "hold for 2/24 delivery." exceptions.

64GB Cellular, no engraving.
 
Silver 64 GB Wifi+Cellular. Now shows "Versand wird vorbereitet" / "prepairing shipping"

Ordered just 1-2 minutes after the store came up.
 
My Delivery estimate still says Oct 22-24th, but the order is still processing. Card was charged Saturday for full amount, but it's temporary authorization. Expecting a delivery delay email....
 
Longtime stalker, first time poster! :D

64 GB Space Grey wifi+cellular, still shows "processing", but a hold was placed on my card last night, so hopefully it will ship soon! Delivery estimate Oct 22-24.
 
The pending charge (for the full amount) is gone from my credit card statement as of this morning. I'm guessing that's a good sign as this happened with my iPhone 6 order as well.

I'll just walk into the Apple Store Friday and easily pick it up


Don't know why people bother pre ordering an iPad when they have been EASILY obtainable on launch since the last years generations

In my case, I wanted it delivered because I don't have time to go to Apple Store this weekend. Mine just departed the EPZ (like China's customs maybe?) with a delivery date of 10/24. Does anyone know how to use flightaware.com to figure out what plane(s) your iPad is on? Do I wait until it departs from a specific city and use that as the origin and my local airport as the destination? I guess that there are several segments to the flight. I do live within 35 miles of a Delta hub.

Still no movement on my 64/sg/lte. (SoCal, 22-24) still processing. Hopefully it's because they're staged nearby.

If you are in the U.S. is the tracking# live? Can you see where its shipping from? Curious if these are stateside or China.
 
64gb SG wifi shipped with a delivery date of 10/23 to Louisville, KY. Ordered 3-4 mins within the store being up.
 
My iPad is shipped from the same place the case came from and took 1 day. Also email says it will be here tomorrow. From Harrisburg PA
