iPad iPad Air 2 - US LTE (cellular) Status/Shipping/Delivery Updates

Mine is still in a Processing status but like a few others, the full pending charge on my Amex, which was there on 10/17 and still there last night is now gone this morning and no other charges are on my Amex. Not sure what is going on.

64 GB silver
Going to Kansas
 
Same Here . . .

Still Processing Items.

iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular 128GB - Silver and Apple Care.

Available to ship: 2-4 business days.

Delivers: Oct 23 - Oct 27 by Standard Shipping.

Ordered just after pre-orders opened on the 17th . . .

IMHO, there is definitely something up with Cellular Models.

I have several friends who ordered Wifi iPad models in various Sizes (Air 2 and Mini 3), Capacities (16 GB to 128 GB), and Colors (Space Gray, Silver, and Gold), and theirs have all shipped already.

Apple, I am disappoint . . . #
 
If international cellular models are shipping, it's not supply, it's got to be something to do with carriers and this new Apple sim.
 
Not to upset the OP and introduce something that isn't wanted - but can we expand the topic to include availability of cellular iPad Air 2s in retail stores?

I'm waiting on Best Buy to have them available.
 
Usually once the charge disappears that a good sign for it to ship soon. Happened with iPhone 6 and last years iPad. Charge appears as pending, then disappears, then ships and full charge appears.

Mine was pending until last night, charge is gone now. Amex.
 
I love Apple's products, but they suck at communication. From being secretive about technical specifications to leaving us in the dark on stuff like this.

Ordered directly from AT&T around 12:30pm EDT on Friday, October 17th. This has been my original window from the start, but I'm still a little disappointed. Usually AT&T is very conservative about their ship times, but it seems this one may be completely accurate. LAME! :(

In the same boat as you. Ordered around 11:30am from AT&T with AT&T Next and it has been preparing to ship since that night. Hopefully it wont take that long, but if it does, oh well. It'll eventually come, but waiting is the hardest!

I don't see many other people here that ordered from AT&T. Maybe I'm the only dunce that decided to go straight through the carrier, lol.

EDIT: Sorry for the double post. Meant to merge it into the one above.

I ordered through Verizon, and I don't even get an estimated delivery date. The original date was 10/31.

The good thing is the site still shows 4-6 days to ship a 128gb space gray if you order today, if there was a supply issue that would have changed by now.

Probably stupid Verizon being added last minute.
 
64 gig Wi-Fi + Cellular, Silver. Delivers 10/22-10/24. Just switched to preparing for shipment.
 
Gold 128GB WiFi + Cellular just went "Preparing for Shipment" literally minutes ago. I remember checking at 9 AM and it was still processing.

I ordered mine around 12 pm on 10/18 from AT&T with the next plan, and mine has shown the shipping dates as 10/27-10/31.
 
Mine too has changed status:

Preparing for Shipment Available to ship: 2-4 business days
Delivers: Oct 23 - Oct 27 by Standard Shipping

Edit: iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular 128GB - Space Gray
 
Black 64g LTE just changed to 'Preparing for shipment'. And I checked about 30 mins ago too. So we are finally seeing action!

So if it prepares today and ships tomorrow I guess I'll get it Monday. That's the very end of the delivery window. Usually Apple gets stuff here more towards the beginning of the shipping window. I'm betting things aren't going as smoothly as they usually do.

Wanted for the weekend but at least it will be here before I go on vacation next week. That was my priority.
