As I said in the news discussion, I ordered 128 GB in Polish store where the delivery date was initially Monday. In separate order I wanted to get the Smart Keyboard and Apple Pencil, however, I was sucessful only with the latter, since the keyboard is not available yet here in Poland (no idea why... o_O).

Got a 128gb WiFi in the UK delivering on Friday.

No store pick up option? Unless I did something wrong. Went for the Logitech case as it looks the better option (wraps the iPad all the way around, I like the 'look' of it, backlit and still works off the new port/magnet thing).

Pencil showing 19-26 November which is frustrating. Delayed production to add the charging gizmo in there perhaps ?
 
Just checked my card account and already see pending charge for full amount. This was for a pickup today. Hope these stores actually have them. I assume if it shows pickup today and you select that you are guaranteed one today ? Never done pickup before
Someone said earlier Apple already had these in store.
 
I suspect the availability on the accessories will increase faster than the estimates and be on par with the devices themselves within a week or so overall. Uncoordinated launches (those without pre-order planning) are often inconsistent. You wouldn't notice if you were not staring right at the sun, so to speak.
 
Apple did a good job with this launch. People seem happy.
Except for those of us who wanted a keyboard case or pencil at launch....bad for the stock! People will just buy 3rd party accessories and accessories is where all the margin is...I ordered the Red Logitech one myself.

Just ordered a 128GB Space Gray for pickup tomorrow. Now, where can I get a screen protector?
 
Anyone else feeling guilty with how much they have spent on an iPad ! I've just paid over 1000 pounds !

This iPad had better change my life at that price ! ;)

My alternative plan was a $2100 notebook running Windows that reportedly crashes without doing anything every 10 minutes for some people.

I don't feel bad at all.

Yea feel stupid paying $1200 for Apple Watch, $1100 for iPad in last 7 months
 
Great job with launch on Pro itself, I get to pick one up today at a store by my house.

Horrible job with the Pencil being out of stock in every single Apple Store in Arizona. Super bummed I won't get it until next Friday if I'm lucky, and possibly even later.

Get the Apple iPad pro silicone case instead.
 
It's interesting that none of the stores in the Bay Area, including the store at the Apple Campus, have the Pencil available. Will have to wait until the 19th for one :(

Watch the stock at the stores. There is a VERY high chance that shipments are on their way or even already arrived but not checked into local stock yet. Also watch for stock at other electronics vendors that are going to sell the device.

I would bet if you keep your eyes peeled, you can find these items sooner than expected.

Just a reminder to everyone upset about some items not being available until later in November: Apple never promised anything better than that.

Happiness = Reality - Expectations
