thanks! Now, I have a little hope.. headed to a wedding, hopefully good news await when I get home. This my first time purchasing online because I wanted it engraved.
Order placed 12:48 AM PST yesterday..
32gb AT&T Black - Not yet shipped
Tan leather cover - prepared for shipment
...but I also ordered from AT&T at the same time...that order shipped yesterday with free 2nd day air and will be here on Monday.
Apple, I love you but still couldn't hate you any more.

One "Prepared", Another Status Not Changed
As I've mentioned before, my cover shipped and I was pleasantly happily to learn that one of two I ordered is prepared for shipment: white 16GB ATT version.
Another 16GB White WiFi only has not shipped. I wonder if this is probably because this is the most basic model, cheapest, and in white, which was no available as a model last year.
So far, it appears a lot of those being shipped or have shipped are the black versions.

First time iPad buyer here. I purchased it online at Mar 11, 2011 at 01:16 AM PST.
This is what my order timing says:
Ships: 3 - 5 business days
Delivers: Mar 18 - Mar 25
Reading all the comments I'm really regretting opting to engrave a custom line.
Can't wait to get my hands on this iDevice.

Engraving
I'm disappointed I opted for engraving too. I didn't really realize the implications of engraving- whether that was because I've never engraved anything before or because I was up at 3 AM feverishly trying to order the iPad before the crazy shipping delays. I would have never gotten it engraved, except I just got married on Oct 10, 2010 and I thought it wouldn't be tooooo cheesy to have our anniversary date engraved on it since it looked like binary (101010)
Mine still says est. delivery of 18th-25th of March, since I ordered it at 3:03 central time and got it within the original 3-5 business day shipping.
Smart cover was shipped out yesterday for an arrival on Tuesday, March 15th. I'm based in the western suburbs of Chicago.
ETA: I ordered a black 16gb WiFi

Considering that it is 4:11 am in SHENZHEN CN right now, I doubt any more will be shipped or even prepped for that matter for another 24 hours at least.
Do they still work on Sundays? Even if they did, is it even possible to ship on Sundays?
Maybe I am an idiot, but do they work around the clock? (Mine hasn't even been prepped for shipping and I ordered the first hour they were up for sale)

Ditto.
OMG please- be happy yours is prepared for shipment! I am sitting here with a smartcover and my iPad 2 hasn't even been prepared to ship.

That's cool. I would have done it.
Do people who get engraving never sell their devices? If so, how much does it hurt resale value, would you say? I would never buy anything secondhand with an engraving.
Only prepared for shipment....... that means even though they said 3-5 days to ship they have it ready in 1 and you are not happy? I was stoked to check my order right now and see it prepared for shipment. Means it could go out today or tomorrow and be here end of next week. Woohoo. Sure Moday or Tuesday would have been nice but I only wasted 2 hours of my life vs the 10hrs I would have wasted in line.
I ordered 12:30ish AM PST on 3/11/11 and just checked now 12:12pm PST 3/12/11.
Everything else but the orange cover has shipped and is en route. My red leather is set to deliver today. My HDMI video output shipped this morning from China due next week.

Same here. FACT: If you go to Gazelle or Ebay Instant Sale you'll get LESS for an engraved item.
