Just noticed that the charger provided with the iPad Air 2 is a 10W charger and not the 12W charger that got shipped with the original iPad Air.

Has anyone else noticed this or get anything differnet?

UPDATE: The 10W Charger is what should be included. The iPad Air 2 page states:"iPad Air 2 and iPad Air come with a 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad mini 3 and iPad mini 2 come with a 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad mini comes with a 5W USB Power Adapter. If you need to purchase an additional adapter, choose the 12W adapter because it can charge all iPad models."

Why would they drop the charger from the 12W to the 10W?

I saw that in the iPad FAQ on Apple's site. I was thinking it was a typo since it seemed like such an odd change for them to make. Even more so since the 12W version is still the one you get if you buy the charger separately.
 
ordered a space grey iPad air 2 128 gig on the 17th around 10 pm, got shipping notification today for delivery tomorrow !
 
I just got a text via MyUps with my tracking number. It'll be here a day early on Thursday. It's coming from Rialto, Ca. My original estimated delivery date was 24-28th.

I'm happy. :D
 
I have a departure scan from Ontario, California via UPS ground for my 64gb space gray wifi. Now, I often order things from Newegg, which also come from the Ontario UPS hub, and they only take two days to get here, which should indicate a Thursday delivery, but they're saying Friday.

Well, I guess I'll have to see when it hits Roseburg for better timing.
 
Hi Everyone, Mine shipped today around noon, sorry for the late post but I was playing with my new iMac with Retina Display that I received today. Anyway my iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi 129GB gold has shipped from California. It will be here tomorrow. :cool:

Was just getting ready to shut down computer and saw the email it's shipped with an expected delivery of the 23rd (ipad air 2 - space grey - 64gb - wifi only) although looking at the tracking history for smart cover (first image) with the air (obviously one that doesn't show it's delivered) it looks like it will be on schedule to be delivered this morning!

Since mine is now in UPS' hands I'm hoping for the slight chance it starts moving and gets to NY with enough time to go out for delivery

WOW! No one with LTE Models in the US is getting their device.

Correct. My 17th pre-order still says "Processing items", though my window remains 24th through 28th.

The only way Apple's going to make that window is if the Cellular models are already in the US rather than being shipped from China as-was the case with the iPhone 6, even-so it's unlikely I'd get mine before next week, so my money's on the 27th.
 
Guys getting LTE just relax. Remember with iphone many people with 128 thought they were not gonna get the phone and sure enough most promised sept 19th got it sept 19th.

My guess is they are just working on wifi models now. Sometime on 22-23rd most of our LTE's will ship (most likely from a local USA location) with 24th delivery.

If there was a delay I would expect the shipping estimate on Apple.com to be longer (it's still 2-4 B Days). I don't think Apple would keep promising a date they knew they couldn't fulfill.

Stay calm folks. No need to get an ulcer about something you can't control.
 
Ok I ordered a 64g LTE version too. (Was going to wait for confirmation on 2g but caved).

I was given 'avaliable to ship 2-4 business days'. With delivery 23rd-27th.

Friday was a business day but since it was the middle of the day I don't count it. So my iPad should ship Tues-Thurs.

Obviously it didn't ship Tues. since it's still 'processing'. But according to the days and times on my order Apple has until Thursday to ship it before it slips.

If it ships today (Wed) I will get it Friday (not looking likely at this point). If it doesn't ship until Thurs. it will be Monday delivery.

All I'm saying is that it's still within the time frame I was given. Now, if it's still 'processing' Thursday, I'll start calling.

I was really hoping for delivery early, or at least Friday. But I'm losing hope. I'm now expecting a Monday delivery. Sigh..........
 
Today is day one of my oct 22-24 delivery window. Still Processing and cancellable. Credit card not charged.

128gb LTE
