I'm signed up mine is still on preparing to ship, what do i type in on UPS?

Click on "Track by reference" and enter your phone number (no parenthesis, no hyphen, no space, just the numbers), country and ZIP code. If nothing's found, try the same thing on Fedex.

Mine just appeared on UPS - label printed only (so UPS hasn't picked it up yet), delivery Thursday by end of day. It showed up on my Apple support profile this morning, and is still Preparing for Shipment.

I went and got a pencil at the Apple Store today. The guy said they won;t have the covers and keyboards until launch day. I wanted to see the cover's colors :(

Just got home and checked, and UPS MyChoice is showing tracking number with delivery on Thursday. Yay! :) That wasn't listed a couple of hours ago.
 
I'm in Australia. My cases were shipped this morning (30th) & my iPad is still at preparing for shipping. The cases get delivered by Startrak & I expect the iPad to be coming via TNT. I'm not at all worried. I believe the iPads are in Sydney, waiting for courier pick up, so as long as that occurs by this evening, delivery is still on track for tomorrow.
 
Pre ordered 128GB Silver LTE.
Unfortunately I only have a PO box and no one ships to PO's! Had to go with in store pickup at a nearby-ish store.
 
Waiting...waiting...waiting...

no success...
 
Found this thread by accident - definitely nice to see I am not the only one obsessed with this stuff.

Based on the posts here - I wonder if I have done something wrong. I ordered directly from the Apple website early on the 24th, and got the confirmation right away. My pencil is here, the keyboard and the case all show later this week.

Originally my iPad showed 3/31, but by the 25th it showed Apr 7 - Apr 12. It hasn't changed since. It seems like I am the only one here that isn't getting one shipped for a week.

you in texas?
 
Got the pencil and case today...but have nothing to use it on. Ordered 24 March but still says preparing for shipment. Weird I have a serial # for iPP in my  profile.o_O
What case did you order for your Pencil? Could you share a link?

Cheers!
 
Got mine from B&H so it won't be shipped until the 31st. For $100 savings on sales tax, I'm perfectly willing to wait 3 extra days to receive mine. :p

I ordered on B&H and the transaction was completed 6 minutes after the site was available. I hope they will start shipping soon. Those who have some experience with B&H please let me know if you think I will get the iPad by Friday since I have that shipped to my office.

Guys, any word on this?
I have to say I placed the order 8 minutes after the pre-order was available.
I reached their Live Chat rep on Friday but the answer he gave me was a bit dumb: The pre-order system is completely automatised so there is no way for them to know what's my order # in the queue, so no idea when mine would be shipped. I used the "live chat" feedback to complaint about this, quoting amazon on how great pre-orders are on other items (as long as you place the pre-order, you are guaranteed an unit on launch day or before).
Now lo and behold I got a follow up mail today due to my complaint, but it was even more disheartening, the guy said "we're sorry blah blah... there are a couple shipments arriving on the second week of April and we hope to deliver them ASAP". Second week as in next week? Shipments arriving to their warehouse so late for a pre-order? Means if 10k people pre-ordered in those 7 minutes before mine I'll have to wait till May?
I don't know, this whole deal sucks and hearing about people basically getting shipments from Apple as we speak doesn't help...
I just sincerely hope this little NY Store is not that well known and there are only a few of us who ordered that way. I usually do it because it's the only place where I can order Apple products at regular price, with no tax, with my international credit card, shipped to my freight forwarder.

I didn't get a case for the pencil. I got the case I ordered for the iPP and the pencil I ordered.View attachment 623887
Ah, of course! Sorry for the misinterpretation, Tampageek. Wishing you a speedy delivery of your iPP!

Cheers!

Actually I ordered the Moxie magnetic case for the pencil, which I don't have yet. I ordered the silicone case and the Smart Keyboard all at the same time from Apple.

Veeeery interteresting, Reedster555. And what a great find. I'm not sure that the Moxie magnetic pencil case is right for me, but I like that companies are releasing products like this one.

Cheers!
 
Just checked Track by Reference on UPS. iPad shipping to Canada finally has a label. Delivers by End of Day on the 31st. Pencil coming on the 1st even though I ordered last week... Might run to the store quickly tomorrow and pick one up.

which province?
 
BC! My pencil was dispatched out of Concord. Hoping the iPad is closer than that because if not, it's probably taking the Mount Hope route which always takes a couple of days.
I see, good luck! let's see who gets it first, i'm in Toronto which is basically right next to Concord...
 
Was able to get my tracking number on MYUPS by using my telephone number, postal code, country. Delivers Thursday 31st.
