Just got my shipping notice.

My iPad 2 is in China today. Since I live in the middle of the Pacific, I'm hoping the plane goes straight from China to Hawaii.

I'm betting it goes from China to California first, kind of a round about trip.

I ordered mine at "Mar 11, 2011 at 01:04 AM PDT"

Estimated delivery date is 1 week from today, March 22nd.
 
So...16GB AT&T has been "prepared for shipping" for more than 24 hours...anyone else experiencing this? Although still in the 3-5 business range, still sad to see not yet shipped or hasn't moved.

Ordered from Apple at 1:03 AM...

Today looks like the day if you have a delivery date of 3/17 via Fedex and you live in the Boston area. Hopefully they will be able to get to Providence, RI from Boston before the trucks leave later in the morning.
Apple's order page always said delivery on the 16th

Sorry to those who are "not yet shipped" just remember that there are 200,000 well paid Chinese factory workers assembling your iPad 2 right now

Ok I'm really concerned now. My iPad supposedly "left fedex origin facility in shenzen a little over 24 hours ago now. It has yet to log in at a subsequent checkpoint. Not hk not Alaska. Where the hell is it? I feel like Friday is not happening despite what fedex says on the tracker still. I mean 24 hours and nothing! Any ideas?

Lantau is in Hong Kong
Probably waiting for a flight.... Or it will suddenly show up in Alaska. Mine took a similar route.

My iPad 2 is on the same plane as yours, no change for 25 hours and then BAM! hit in transit Lantau Island, not what I was hoping for but at least its some progress.

I will feel so much more comfortable when it arrives in the us. Right now I feel friday delivery is not that realistic. Hope I'm wrong!
 
Arrived Newark at 2am.

I live in NYC which is close so hopefully it can get onto some trucks soon but if not at my local distribution spot then looks like a Thursday arrival.

All in all not bad.

I'm certain it will arrive on Friday; my hope for a thursday delivery however has been shattered.
