Ordered mine with my iPad on the 7th and it said at the time ships by March 16-19th. Now it says available March 16th-March 20th. Nothing about shipping or delivery as of right now. Also, the order status is still processing items for the Apple TV. This is in Canada. It'll be interesting to see when my Apple TV arrives.

Life without an Apple TV is pretty miserable right now (I sold my Apple TV 2).

Anyone have their Apple TV shipped?

My iPad changed to shipped 3 days ago but my Apple TV is still "processing" as of today (Tuesday). Should I be worried about getting it on Friday?

Mine says processing, but mine is estimated delivery between March 21 and 28, because I ordered on day 2 instead of announcement day. I wanted to research a little bit on whether it was worth it or not. But I should have it sometime between next Friday and the following Friday, and not have to do the in-store crowds or trying to find a store that has it in stock. Yay for online ordering!

My order still says processing with a March 16 delivery date. I also ordered it the same time I ordered my new iPad, which is marked shipped and is sitting in Louisville. It will be interesting if both items make it to the island by Friday - if they do, big props to Apple, UPS and FedEx for coordinating such a world-wide shipping and timing operation.

Still processing.

Both iPads have shipped already and are sitting in Nashville with thousands (maybe millions) of others.

I ordered everything on March 7th in the early afternoon.

Can you screen shot it? I'm not saying that I don't believe you, but it's best to verify it, because you are the first person to say that.

EDIT: Should have checked my own before posting. It's also prepared. Here's the shot to prove it. Screen Shot 2012-03-13 at 7.25.06 PM.png

Mine has also changed within the last hour!

No I am not going to put up screen shots for this. If I was saying I received my new ipad today then yes I would prove it. LOL

I'm glad I found this thread. This is my first time preordering and I noticed my iPad was ready to go with a tracking number and everything, but the Apple TV seems to be sitting in limbo.

Did everyone else order an iPad AND Apple TV? I wonder if that has something to do with it? Like, the packed them together but the iPad was the big ticket item, so to speak, so it was the one that got marked off.

I should add this is my first time preordering from Apple (so excited, this will be my second Apple TV after having a first generation one for years and my first iPad) so I don't know what's typical.

I ordered the new iPad and and the Apple TV together on March 7th. The iPad shipped two days later. As of now, it still on it's way from China. It's shipping to Texas, so maybe that's why it didn't go through Nashville, like other people's:

The Apple TV changed from "Processing Items" to "Preparing for Shipment" today:

I'm guessing that the Apple TV is sitting in some warehouse in the US, because there is no way they can send it from China as well at it getting here by Friday.

Oh, oh. I believe you got the ATV2 as they were selling that for $89 just before they put up the ATV3 for sale.

Yikes :mad:

Well if I get an ATV2, then I'll go to an Apple store and have them switch it for the new one then. Boo.

Why does it say March 16th then? Shouldn't the ATV2 ship right away?
