Well, I was hoping to avoid the queues at CG and RS, but no luck. I just visited the Westfield store and staff there confirmed that supplies are going to be really limited, with most of the stock going to the bigger stores. They said that if I really wanted to get the model of my choice, that's where I should head, and early. And so, I'll see the rest of you there.

Drat.
 
First time poster. Text received Order shipment

Hi there, first time poster after F5'ing this site every hour for the last week! So excited for tonight / tomorrow!

On a side note, just received a text from apple saying my blue smart has been shipped and to receive delivery before 25th march!?!?

Anyone else just received this?

Feels like the calm before the storm. Tomorrows going to be awesome. Hope everyone gets the model they want.

Anyone know if, say, you don't get the model you wanted, you buy a different model and just return it a week or so later for the model you want?
 
I ordered the HDMI cable earlier - showing as shipped although also showing as 18th April Delivery!!
 
What I find interesting is I was planning to go to Bluewater tomorrow for an iPad, realised this would be a massive mistake and instead was content on just ordering online. To be honest though, there hasn't been much talk about any Kentish activity on here. My local currys was listed on the iPad delivery list a few pages back, so will hopefully pop down there tomorrow afternoon (unless the 1am online orders already ship by the morning). Anyone else in the area at all?
 
First time post on here for me.

My iPad 2 Grey Smart Cover is also showing as shipped! :D

Looking forward to eventually receiving the iPad 2. I'll be ordering online hopefully.
 
nice, just got my text confirmation too, says I can expect delivery on or before 25/03! before? now if it turns up in the next 3 hours I'd be seriosuly impressed!
 
Yeah ordered it at 3.30 this afternoon when they were online for a short time. No tracking information on the website yet though, just shipped.

Estimated delivery is still showing 18th April on the website, but the text reckons it will be with me tomorrow :D

Just to confirm ETA:

The end is drawing nearer...

I hope everyone gets the model they want; you sure deserve it!

A HUGE thanks to all of the hard work people have done calling round stores and giving us the information we need. It feels like a real community here!

Don't forget to check out the live blog updates from people queuing at Apple Stores (including me!): www.ipad2queue.co.uk

Thank you all, and again, I hope that you all get the model you want.
