When I ordered my Mini, it originally said ships in 2 weeks (NZ). Updated today to shipped, estimated delivery by 2nd November, guess they had more stock than expected. Excite.
 
Mine has been stuck on preparing for shipment since Friday,i've tried looking it up by reference but no luck,the serial number is showing up in my account though,i would really like to track this.anyone have any ideas?
 
What if you're still in the processing state? :confused:

Depends what you have ordered mate. If it's anything but a Black 16gb wifi, I think you'll be waiting past Friday. By the trend of things here, UK wise, we seem to only have the Black 16gb

That is what I ordered, along with light grey smart cover. I originally ordered digital av adapter as well but I cancelled that in case it delayed the rest of the order.
 
I am still on preparing for shipment also. I assume that it will escalate to shipped either tonight or tomorrow. As for processing still. I assume you had the original 11/2 or 02/11 for us brits as your delivery date when ordering?
 
Still preparing for shipment here as well, man this is taking forever something has too happen soon!
 
Mine Still hasn't shown on any Tracking Database

Tried all the suggestions. Got the serial #. It has shown preparing for shipment since the 26th but still has not shipped according to all the databases and Apple's Site. Looks iffy now for the 2nd.
F4 serial # and week 43 build.

USB cord on order was shipped Sunday and just cleared customs in Memphis @ 4:13am still has to get to local Fed Ex and then get delivered. so if it takes it that long for a mini to get here it won't make by the 2nd since it is not showing shipped on anything

You need not worry. I have not seen Apple miss their date in many years. Your item is liklely shipped but I think Apple does not give out tracking info till the last day or two to prevent the Apple people from "hammering" their tracking website!

Your mini will arrive when it is indicated so sit back and relax!
 
iPad Mini bulk orders out for delivery in DFW. Let's see if we finally get shipped notices later on in the day.

EDIT 2: And MOO.com takes the opportunity to send me a newsletter with the subject, "There’s a package for you", heh!

EDIT 3: Found some more pallets of iPads out for delivery around here. Hmm.

Mine is in PA right now. Just called FedEx and they said It was still there because of the storm. She told me my package should be here tomorrow before 3pm. I ordered my iPad Mini at launch the second you could. I had my doubts so I called back and got someone else and was told the same thing. Was told It would have been here today except they had delays due to the weather. Hope this is right and It arrives tomorrow before 3pm.

Thanks for the update. I also ordered right at launch. So there is still hope! :)
 
Its odd my mini has been stuck on Apple's site as prepared for shipment however I've been tracking it the last three days on UPS by reference number.

Mine arrived yesterday in Louisville aka World Port. Only a couple days until it reaches Dallas :)

ive ordered the black 16gb its still preparing for shipment

Try going to UPS (http://www.ups.com/WebTracking/track?loc=en_US) and track by reference and use your phone number with no spaces or hyphens (i.e. 9725551212)

All the black minis were available to preorder in the UK last Friday it was the white one's that were the problem. I ordered the 32GB and it states it's being delivered on the 2nd as expected. Still would like to be able to track it like the US chaps can.

Mine is also still showing preparing to ship. Please explain how you got the serial number? I have tried every option on the Apple site and can't seem to find this place people are getting serial numbers. A screen shot would be helpful of how you are getting into that.
