Yes just found out its that airport and that is still approx 180 miles from my house which would take about 2.5 hours to get to my city IF I was the only one but they still have other stops to make... Am I wrong about how this works?

Do you have a UPS hub in your town? What they would do is from Palm Beach they would deliver to the hub and then to you.

Mine is similar in mine would fly into Sacramento and then truck it 2 hours to the local hub and then deliver to me. Yeah they tend to show up around 10 or 11am, but at least they show up. So in your case, you could have it late in the morning/early afternoon depending on where you are on the driver's route.
 
w00t! Exception is gone and now I'm at:

LOUISVILLE, KY, US 04/03/2010 12:28 A.M. IMPORT SCAN

Lets hope all goes well for tomorrow! w00t w00t!

It's almost as though they read this thread to write that.

That's bunk too. UPS HAS to scan the packages. When they left china they scanned the containers but when they get to the destination city they are broke up into different delivery routes.
 
This should calm your fears.

From a UPS employee on twitter
# Third, if you've not received notice that your area does not have Saturday delivery and you're resched for Monday, then you're good for 4/3. about 3 hours ago via TweetDeck
# Second, UPS developed special ops plan to coordinate delivery of iPads on a single day. And so, Tracking is not showing all movements. about 3 hours ago via TweetDeck
# A few things before I hop off ... First, UPS reaffirms the notice you received from Apple that delivery is scheduled for Saturday. about 3 hours ago via TweetDeck

No, no, no. I am pissed. I ordered the first day and my package is in Kentucky and I live in FL with no flight out getting to Palm beach which is still hours away until almost 7am. and I know its not delayed info because the scan time is only 2 hours ago.

The UPS flight to WPB goes on to South West Florida next. I believe our iPads are on that flight. I live in Orlando. We just won't get it too early in the day... probably sometime in the afternoon.

Didn't someone say that for Vegas they all end up going to Ontario and then go by truck to Vegas?

That is what I am worried about. Ontario is about 3-4 hours driving time, and it would have to arrive by 6:30 am basically in order to make the out of delivery cut off. I had things arrive in Las Vegas like 8 am and did not go out.

So it would have to get to Ontario quickly if that is the case. All I can do is hope I guess.
 
I FINALLY got my scan in KY. I looked on the site for the airline arrivals, and I have a scheduled arrival in Chicago at 5:00 am. If it's on that plane, it MAY actually still get here on Saturday. This is the very first sign of hope I've had in a week. My fingers are crossed.
