For the 4S, my iPhone was actually already in the USA. It sat on processing for a week, before shipping out the day before it was supposed to arrive. I really hope my iPad comes from China this time, because it's such a more fun experience tracking it across the globe! And seeing Shipped instead of Processing is a lot more reassuring.
 
Mine was ordered from my Apple rep who phoned to take my order 5 minutes after the keynote finished my delivery date is the 16th. for the iPad, but I'm not sure about the new ATV...I think they will both arrive together though.
 
woohoo

Did you get a seperate email from UPS or Apple or was this from the original email receipt after you ordered it online?
 
I ordered the "new" IPad, and a new ATV3, both with Apple care, at about 4:00 pm yesterday, and got my confirmation email shortly thereafter. My tracking number says that the IPad is "preparing to ship". the other items show as being "processed". Interesting, I DID opt for the free engraving. No further details yet as to exactly WHEN they will ship. Still shows delivery on 16th. Hoping for sooner, or at least not later!
 
I thought the engraving would slow down the process, so I didn't bother, plus I want to re- sell mine, down the road ( and my case covers it anyway).
 
I ordered my 16GB black iPad and wireless keyboard at 1pm after keynote.

My iPad is still processing but my keyboard came today. This is my first iPad so I'm really excited..!

I'm even drooling over how beautiful the keyboard is :D.
 
Just got my shipping notification. FedEx info hasn't been updated yet, but did get the e-mail.
 
Looks like my iPad has shipped. Now, I am pretty sure it won't actually come until March 16th. But let's have fun anyway!

other browser... no idea, but you can do it.

Mine's still processing. I ordered from the EPP site as soon as it went live, so I could make use of the discount, but still no preparing for shipment or shipment, 64gb black wifi only model fwiw.

Delivers between March 19-21

Ordered as soon as the store went back up. Status is showing delivery "between March 19-21" (to Switzerland BTW).
Does anyone else have the same delivery date estimates?
 
iPad (3rd Generation) Shipped!

I was surprised to see a shipment notification already this morning. Has anybody else gotten a notice? Mine is shipping via Federal Express, and a tracking number is provided. The tracking number is not yet live.
