Sweet! 2nd group of iPads just arrived in Tenn! By the looks of what things looked like yesterday we should have ours tomorrow!

Does anyone know the flight path from Tenn to the Buffalo NY area?
 
I'm a bit behind the east coast folks here, but mine made it to Ontario last night, then usually gets trucked 2-3 hours to my suburb. Last update:

4:30 am
In transit
LOS ANGELES, CA

Usually That means I'll see "Arrived at destination sort facility" and "Out for delivery" within the next hour if the last three Apple deliveries I've received mean anything... we shall see!
 
Mine still hasn't shipped (est. delivery 11/23). I just called Apple and all the person did was read off my order status to me in a relatively condescending way. Today is the 5th business day. They told me to do was call back if it doesn't get to me by the 23rd and that that was all they could do. What was the point of pre-ordering?!

I'm also in same boat as u I ordered on nov 8 very early towards evening went to preparing for shipping and has not changed to ship. My is do Nov 23rd they said same today is 5th business day and they said some point today should have tracking or Friday morning. Ordered iPad lte Verizon 64GB

I also ordered Verizon 64gb. Pretty sure we're gonna be the last people in the country who pre-ordered to get our iPads..
 
Nice..

Sweet!

Nov 15, 2012 6:59 AM On FedEx vehicle for delivery ENGLEWOOD, CO

Should be here soon, just a few miles away ;)
 
Mine is also On FedEx vehicle for delivery. Anyone confirm a delivery yet ? I am excited but not trying to get too excited in case something changes lol
 
i made my order yesterday morning... I should of just waited to buy at the apple store or att... im sure they will have them soon.. I just buy locally and cancel my order
dec. 3rd so says my order
 
Tired of waiting

It is at Destination Location sort facility since 2:01 AM, hasn't even been moved to the suburbs till now. Looks like it left Memphis by road as it left at 3:54 PM yesterday, but the next status update was 2:01 this morning.
Funny that the cover I ordered was sent by flight early in the morning, reached Chicago at 6 ish and was delivered before 9, the important thing - the iPad is being delayed.
Wish FedeX had real-time tracking and ability to query the exact status, or more information.
 
So... my iPad is on its way to be delivered... it was sent out earlier than my smart case, which has just arrived. I don't understand... but at least it appears to be moving towards me... guess it's just taking a different route :confused:
 
I ordered the same iPad as you, on the same day, and I called in for 2-3 day as well. My tracking number's transit history matches yours to a T, except mine was picked up shortly after yours.

I think we're 2nd-round crate buddies! Which means we're 2nd generation... Which therefore means we're better than everyone receiving their iPads before us, right? Right?

.: sobbing, trying to rationalize how everything is going to be okay until my precious... er, I mean, shiny new iPad arrives :.

We're in transit!

AzN1337c0d3r received his today. His was in transit on the 14th.

Nope mine said 15th when they first gave me the tracking number, and then it said 16th when they actually shipped it out and hasn't budged since. It is possible we aren't the same shipment.

Note that tracking doesn't show that my package has arrived in Houston yet, but I'm pretty sure that flight was the one I linked.

Kinda silly to put all these ipads on a truck and not deliver them. I just can't see that happening. I guess will find out after 4:30pm


If anyone get's a delivery please confirm it with a photo :)

I know right?
Mine's arrived in Chicago for about 10 hours now, the local Fedex is a mile away from where I want it delivered, and about 13 miles away from the airport. Why aren't they moving it? This sucks bad.
Funnily the cover was delivered way faster.

Just called FedEx to see why it wasn't being moved. They say it is on a freight which is scheduled to be delivered Monday. They can't open it because it contains thousands of packages to be sorted and will only be opened/sorted and delivered on Monday.
That is ridiculous. Whatever goodwill they earned by delivering the cover in three days time, is now lost.

It's out for delivery!

Ordered Nov 2, white Verizon 64. Apple site said it would be delivered tomorrow, FedEx site has been saying it would be delivered Nov 19. Looks like it will get here a day earlier than Apple's date, four days earlier than FedEx's date.

I appreciate everyone posting here. I found the thread because I was worried that the Nov 19 delivery date was accurate and I'm leaving for a week that morning. Here I found folks saying they thought FedEx was posting a late delivery date just to cover their bases so I relaxed a little. Now it's not only on time, it's early. Hope others have the same good fortune.

I'm in San Diego.
 
Pre-ordered on the 26th.
32GB AT&T scheduled for Monday, 19th, but on truck for delivery today.
 
My AT&T 16 GB white iPad is out for delivery today. The delivery date was originally the 23rd, changed to the 16th, then changed to the 19th (which it still says). Obviously it will be the 15th.

Update: Delivered at 11:15 AM PT.

Looking at this it's amazing that on the 14th it left Alaska, went through customs in Memphis, and was delivered to Portland.
