I'm gonna guess Monday. That seems to be the delivery date for online orders.

We'll send a Pickup Notification email when your items are ready.
Please wait for the Pickup Notification email to confirm that your order is ready
Items shown as "Available today" are typically ready for pickup within an hour
 
Got mine ordered for in store pickup. That was painless and smooth... TOO painless and smooth to be true. Maybe I'm dreaming? :D
 
And yet again. More expensive in the UK.
Direct conversion $499 = £311
Even after VAT @ 20% (£62) thats £373 not £399.
 
Ordered!

That was easy.

128, T-Mobile (in case I don't want to use the hotspot on my iPhone).

Pick-up at The Grove tomorrow, along with a replacement Nano I ordered a few days ago.

I'm stoked!
 
Just ordered:

iPad Air 64GB Space Gray WiFi+LTE w/red smart case
iPad Air 64GB Space Gray WiFi-only w/black smart cover

Available for in-store pickup!
 
Personal P\U worked for me. Biggest Apple Store in Detroit has my new lightweight Air waiting for me.

I do get a kick out of 1st day.

Now. Where is that email notification?
 
DONE.

Hopefully, I should pick up my iPad Air (32 GB "Silver" Wi-Fi) later today at the Apple Store in Arden Fair (Sacramento, CA). :)
 
32gb space grey WiFi ordered, via Apple Store app, for in store pickup in Los Gatos, CA. Took all of 1 minute. Easy peasy, lemon squeezey. G'night... :cool:
 
Never tried in-store pickup - so I thought I'd give it a try. Ordered the 128 silver AT&T from the Pentagon City Mall in VA. Ordered with the app. Super easy. Now, back to bed. :)
 
Is it seriously not possible to buy a factory unlocked cellular iPad in the US for full device price? :confused:
 
Patience my children

Don't be worried about receiving your email in the next few minutes telling you it's ready. Remember an employee has to retrieve the sticker with your info, attach it to your items you purchased, set them aside in a special spot, then update the system that yours is set.

In reality, I would be surprised if you receive it prior to 7am EST as staff will be really busy this morning. I am sure most stores have people dedicated to this but no need to start blowing up posts with "oh gosh, i have not received my email"

Sure it is!! Order TMobile. It comes with the air card you never have to really activate.
 
Phoenix is no go

They are either having an issue in Phoenix or they are all sold out of the 128 verizon model. Bummer.
 
iPad Air has got the advantage over the Mini this time round - it got smaller and lighter while the Mini got bigger, heavier and more expensive.

Just got my order in - 32GB Space Grey Wi-Fi. Got 2 x PS4's on preorder too, man I'm going to be skint this Christmas!
 
Ordered: 128 GB WiFi, black Smart Cover.

Looks like the iPad will get here sooner than the cover - 11/4 delivery.
 
Available today. We'll notify you when these items are ready.

Woohoo :) Quick and painless, unlike trying to preorder the phone...website didn't lag either.

Will pick up after work today - 16gb Wifi Space Gray :)
