Apple is not doing ***** for us. I tried to get the target deal matched so did a few other people I know.

No since in wasting time trying to get a free smart cover. If you want a simple where sorry from a apple rep then go ahead and call cause that's all you will get

ORLANDO, FL

Mine is already here, but delivery is still scheduled for Monday. Normally they would deliver tomorrow, so they better not make an exception this time :)
 
I think mine will show up tomorrow. I'm in Akron Ohio and it's already in Cleveland (only 45 miles away). I purchased an iPod touch for my nephew that arrived today and didn't make it to Cleveland until 6am this morning.

Sadly I think I'm going to return it before I even take it out of the box. I'm with AT&T and I wouldn't mind getting the $100 rebate for adding it to my newly renewed share plan.

Same situation here. I hope we get it fast. I am not to far away from the sort facility but you never know.
 
I called FedEx as mines at the local sort facility with a delivery date of the 19th and FedEx says I will not receive my iPad til the 19th...hope she was wrong. IT'S IN MY CITY! Makes no sense.

I was afraid of this. I think fedEX will end up holding ares till the 19th. Maybe they got there communications wrong with Apple. Apple said there is not a hold on them but maybe fedex thinks there is.

Mine is also in my state and my delivery date is saying the 19th still :eek:
 
Delivery updated to 15th

Hi all I posted earlier, and for reference ordered about 6am MST on the 26th for my 32GB LTE Verizon.

note: I DID make a call when it was "preparing for shipping" as many did (and posted on this forum) and asked the rep to upgrade the shipping from standard to something sooner and after my call I noticed it updated with 2-3 day shipping, she did this at no extra charge I told her if she can't, no worries.

Below is my full scan history, maybe this helps but it has been stuck on the 16th ever since shipping which gave me hope for Friday, but now it now says "DELIVERY BY NOV 15TH, 4:30pm" on my status. I'll keep you updated ;) Yes I live in Denver.

For those of you in Colorado, FedEx Flight 529 has your iPad in it if it left Memphis at 4:07 PM.

I honestly cannot wait. At this rate I don't see how it's not gonna come here on Friday, if not tomorrow.

Super excited! :D

I'm with you buddy - welcome to Denver, iPads ;)

this is ridiculous.

i pre-ordered an iPad 4, 64 GB LTE-Verizon model within hours after pre-ordering went live.

mine still has yet to ship

Right on man :D

Mine still says Nov 19 by 4:30! Hopefully it'll be here sooner. Although granted, I am still in school for the week so if it did get here on Monday, I'd be home to receive it. But nothing like an iPad waiting for me at home as motivation to get through the week!
 
Mine has made it to Raleigh - my home city. Still shows delivery for next Monday. I have to assume it goes out for delivery tomorrow.

Same situation for me. I called FedEx and they said it will be held til Monday, really hope the lady was wrong.
 
but now it now says "DELIVERY BY NOV 15TH, 4:30pm" on my status. I'll keep you updated ;) Yes I live in Denver.

hehe. Of course, no more than 30 min after I posted that, I checked again and now this :

Ship date Nov 12, 2012
Estimated delivery Nov 16, 2012 by 10:30 AM

Back to Friday! Which is totally fine, just fun to watch this all unfold......
 
I'm noticing this when I view the tracking page on my iPad as well. I have no idea why..

Does your estimate say the 19th? Mine still does. My mom's iPad is headed to Austin and hers left Memphis according to Fedex... and we both got texts from Apple saying we would get ours on the 16th... no clue what's happening XD

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.

Well, mine's in Ontario, less than 40 miles from my house. I'd be rather surprised if they take until Monday to get it to me.
 
Me too, makes no sense.

WHHYYYYYY?

I was mad at UPS 2 weeks ago and now I'm going to be mad at Fedex. I hate shippers (and I am one!)
 
I know what you mean....still waiting for mine to ship as well. :confused:

Yeah, I am curious as to what order orders are fulfilled... Only upside I can see right now is that we'll get our iPads before orders placed today. Just checked the online Apple Store and new iPad LTE orders appear to be "available to ship: 7 business days" and "delivers Dec 3" by standard shipping...
