Thats pretty cool! Im surprised how many 32 and 64 models bought. Im sure apple makes a lot more money selling us the larger storage. Plus all that app money they're about to get? They're going to sell 40 million of these for sure.

I had to reset the poll today - many who got their ipads stopped updating (thus appearing as undelivered). Here is the 360+ responses from the last two days -- should give you a better idea of the model distribution...

Hope mine doesn't quite follow your path. Mine was scanned at 11:59pm at the local facility in Lantau today, but I'm really hoping for a Monday delivery.

You might get lucky - as you can see, mine sat in both AK and IN for a while, while others that appeared to be on the same plane with me left almost right away. You never know!
 
Anyone else's Ipad hanging out with mine?

east coast deliveries

Mine just left Anchorage. Anyone know which flight? Its ultimately going to CT

Does your tracking say "released for delivery" or "Departed Fedex Location"? Mine says released for delivery; hoping that means it's on a plane to Memphis.
There are two tonight, one of which you are likely on. FDX28 and FDX94 are both enroute now!

Fingers crossed for all of us!

My tracking looks the same as yours. I'm hoping it won't get stuck on Lantau Island for long. I saw some other people's tracking reports where it showed the packages got hung up for a while.
 
Damn! I'm still stuck in Prepared For Shipment hell since last night.

Am I the only one here whose ipad has not actually shipped?
 
Just so you know....

For those who don't know Shenzhen is right next to hong kong. A truck could literally drive the iPad from Shenzhen to Lantau island within an hour or less.

It's daylinght there now so things should start moving shortly
 
Not yet shipped

Ordered at March 11 3:39 PDT 64-Black-wifi only still Not yet shipped status. Supposed to ship 5-7 business days.

Stuck

after Left FedEx Ramp SENNAN-SHI, , it's usually Anchorage ... hopefully

Mine is STILL stuck at:

2011-03-17 22:12:00 Left FedEx Ramp CHEK LAP KOK

Seriously - that was so long ago. It has been that way all day. I don't know the exact time difference, but I feel like it has to be somewhere else, and I know yours seemed to leave at the same time as mine, and updated to Taiwan. Have you seen any movement on yours yet? Leaving Taiwan?

Fed Ex also has a direct flight from Shenzhen to Memphis is your IPAD is lucky enough to miss the Alaska stop over you can shave off 1/2 a day.
 
Anybody else have their iPad ship this morning and tracking page still showing it in China?

I'm still there...

I am pretty sure we are on this flight. Check the departure time, 22.12pm.

it matches our fedex departure time from Chek Lap Kok

We'll know in 2.5 hrs
 
ipad has been shipped but is in Alaska and gas been in released for delivery mode for about two hours. Anybody know if that means its on a plane to memphis or new jersey? (its being delivered to brooklyn)

Anybody with the same problem?
Mine's estimated to arrive on the 22nd but im hoping to get it sooner since some other ipads that were on the same plane to Alaska have a Mar 18 estimated delivery day.
Any help or insight is greatly appreciated.
