Just got the prepared for shipment on the US site. Movement at last.
Me too, at long last!
You and I were amongst the very earliest to order but Apple kept us hanging on for a day. Don't understand it at all, particularly as you got order confirmation very quickly as well. In my case the confirmation email took over 11 hours so I put the delay down to that.
Not to worry now, all is forgiven.![]()
I'm starting to think it might be down to the sim cards.
Because it seems to give information long before the EU site does. For example the only change I can see on the EU site is that I cannot cancel my order now as that option has greyed out. It's not obvious. Also still says not yet shipped as it has done all the time. The US site now tells me it's at the next stage of movement, prepared for shipping.
Do you think the smaller Apple stores (Brighton) will still have a 16GB WiFi in stock at around 5PM?
With the big shortage that they keep talking about I wouldn't rely on it.
My iPad case shipped this morning. Although I have no idea who the shipper is!
"G3 WORLDWIDE NETHERLANDS BV"
Their website has no obvious tracking facility, although I do have a tracking number. So, number but nowhere to enter it. Hmm..

The 16GB will be the first one to sell out probably, you need to get to the store first thing!
Have to admit I've felt a little left out with everyones orders being dispatched etc. Checked mine last night and it still hadn't gone. Anyway got an email this morning from apple saying it is on it's way! Was begining to think something was up with my order. Happy days.
For those picking up I think the stores will have a fair bit of stock. I was at the Trafford centre on Friday just thought I'd chance the apple store to see if they had any ipads to play with. No luck. Speaking to one of the girls in there I played a bit dumb saying I thought I could get one now blah blah she said if I come back next Friday they will have "plenty to play with and plenty of stock".
Yeah I spoke to someone at my local store yesterday and they said they will have stock you just have to get there early to avoid disappointment!

I agree, I think the 16GB will be the first to go. It's the cheapest and just the model people who want to dip their toe in the water would buy.
