Hey,

I see that there already is an UK and an Canadian thread about this issues, but I believe all international customers are concerned. I'm based in Germany and my 32 GB white iPad Mini with cellular was supposed to be delivered between the 27th and the 4th. Apple quietly bumped it to between the 5th and the 11th. I really don't bother about the waiting so much, but I think Apple should at least have sent an E-Mail or a general press release. Why is it that we never get an official information when their products actually get delivered as seen with the new iMac?

How do you think about it? Is your cellular iPad Mini still on track?

Same for me here in Austria, my 32GB white cellular got bumped from 27.11./4.12. to 5.12./12.12. yesterday and is still in "Processing order" state.

Its a little bit annoying that the shipping estimate remained "1-2 weeks" the entire time even though two weeks have passed since the last update but there is still a chance that it will get delivered next week.

Not in Australia. It's always been 26/11 - 03/12 and mines getting delivered Monday. Engraved sets were shipped earlier this time. But for the first batch of people whom pre-ordered it hasn't been delayed.

It seems there is a "thread overflow" regarding this topic....

Anyway my mini just changed to "Preparing for shipment" so the odds of receiving it next week have probably improved a bit ;)

Definitely a thread overflow of which I'm at part blame as everyone else, but it will subside by the end of December I'm sure.

The one thing I did think about - how peeved will those people be that don't receive their product ordered at the beginning of November by the end of December. I'd be a really unhappy camper!

I just received the shipment confirmation, estimated delivery date is 5.12. so I should get it next week.
