iPad I just placed my iPad Air 2 order. Post your shipping estimates!

I just placed my iPad Air 2 order. Post your shipping estimates!

Just ordered a iPad Air 2! Got the 64gb Gold Wifi only online on Apple website. Best buy didn't have the gold or gray in stock even though I called minutes before going there. Got my military discount from Apple so that was nice. I'm coming from a 64gb iPad 3 with Verizon cellular. I may sell that on Craigslist or Amazon since I'm with T-Mobile now with an iPhone 6 64gb and i have 5gb tethering in my phone plan with unlimited data. Which is why I opted for wifi only this time. I used cellular on my iPad maybe a couple times within the past year even while traveling.
 
My iPad delivery has been tied up since 10/19 and finally going to pick it up from FedEx. I have never been a fan of FedEx for this exact reason.
 
They are pretty quick right now. Ordered an Air 2 64g LTE from AT&T store on Tuesday at noon and it was delivered to my house by Friday at noon.

Shipped Tuesday about 6pm. Since they told me 7 to 14 days I was pretty surprised it came that quickly.
 
Ordered mine a few hours ago! The sales rep said it should be here by Monday.
Super excited! :D

I finally broke down after all these years and bought my first iPad. I just couldn't see the need for it as I use my iPhone 6 all the time. Well I bought the newest model and I must say, I'm loving it. I have mimicked the look of my iPhone and I just love it. It's a larger version of the love I have for my phone.

I had ordered mine from Verizon on November 7th and got it on the 12th.

I did also order the red product cover, but now I think I want the case for it. I want more protection for this beauty.

I also signed up for a workshop on the iPad to see if there are things I know nothing about on how to use it.

I'm excited! Just wanted to share.:)

Will add to existing iPad 2:

Air 2 gold with 64gb Wi-fi + Cellular. Got a $50.00 iTunes gift card from Apple.

Ready to pick up at local Apple store. I ordered Friday, 11/28/14 and opted to stay out of Black Friday mayhem. Eager to pick it up on Monday!

Got my first one a few weeks ago. Air 2/Wi-Fi Space Gray 64GB from Walmart since I was afraid of Best Buy being sold out of them online. There was a small spec of dust under the glass sadly, but I was going to live with it.

I checked BestBuy.com in the early morning on Black Friday and noticed the exact model I wanted except the capacity (Wi-Fi SG 128GB) so I jumped on it. 2x the capacity for the same price? Heck yeah! I've been enjoying it since then and it is awesome. Even though I have an iPad micro (aka 6 Plus), I still find some tasks easier to do on the full sized iPad.

Interestingly enough, this is my first full sized iPad in almost 2 years and the first full sized iPad I purchased brand new (the other two, iPad 1st Gen and iPad 2 were Apple refurbished).
 
I just got my new iPad Air 2 at Walmart with a price match to BestBuy. 16Gb, wifi only.



This replaces my iPad 1st generation I got the week they introduced them. It is still banging along quite well and my adult son who I gave it to is enjoying it a lot.



And I've read all the stories about why to not buy a 16Gb version. But that's what my iPad 1 was and space was never an issue. Don't figure it will be this time either.

With a lot of services moving to streaming models, you can survive with 16GB. I did for a couple years with my previous iPad. Plus, it's enough to store a few movies, pictures and songs for the occasional listen.
 
Just ordered a 16gb from ATT - hoping it doesn't take too long.

Anyone ordered one lately from ATT website?

That's my thinking also. With so much available to interact with iCloud and OneDrive, there just isn't that much of a need for me to have all that much storage.



I've got about 5Gb to play with and will have a little more after I delete some things that I got and haven't used in years! :)

Plenty of games on there from when I was the only one that had an iPad and my grandnieces/nephews got a bunch to play on it are certainly up for grabs since they now all have their own iPad/iPhone of one sort or another.
 
Guess the iPad Air 2 hype finally died down but here I am.

Looks the Best Buy finally got some 128GB cellular Air 2s in.

Best Buy had emailed me a 10% of almost anything coupon one morning which I was pretty sure wouldn't work on Apple products. But I checked and lo and behold it did and Best Buy had stock, to boot.

I ended up paying a little over $800 for a fully loaded Air; I'm on these things so much I think it's a worthwhile upgrade.

I only placed the order yesterday morning and Best Buy said it would ship to store for pickup in 3-5 days.

Can't wait to get my grubby hands on it...
