I've been following Yahoo as well. It shows it "held at sort facility" in Anchorage, with the same timestamp, and offers no delivery date at all.

Fedex is keeping the estimated delivery time, 03/18/11 4:30PM

Mine is in the same shipment as yours. I'm 99.9% sure that it will be delivered tomorrow which is good. This has been a long week waiting for it to ship, and then leave HK, and then arrive in the states.

I can't imagine what it must feel like to be one of the people who ordered later and have to wait a month for it to ship.

Mine made it to Oakland today and should be here tomorrow!
 
Whew! Glad you were right Chapel...looks like our iPads hit Anchorage at 4:44pm our time (1:44pm PST). Good chance now they'll make it to our local distribution centers to get to our doorsteps by CoB tomorrow!

After going all over SE Asia, I want a stamped passport with mine :cool:

Hey Slyderulz,

I don't think we made the 18th delivery date, seems it missed the Flight out of Alaska last night. :(

So Close too, if it hadnt gone from China to Japan back to China then South Korea then Alaska......

I'm thinking those Pilots needed a Sobriety Test.

trying to find a logical reason why i'm not in the same boat, or on the same plane, as you...

ordered 1 64 gb white 3G ATT @ 1:16am PST

this is dripping with wack sauce....:mad::mad::mad:

EDIT: maybe it's because mine's ATT and urs is VZW??

Mine went to Memphis. I thought I was screwed bc it hadn't moved since it's 1:15 arrival. Just now I refreshed. And bang left 3:38. Guess what flight left 3:38? Bradley/Hartford! That means they could really pull this off!
 
Huh!? Mine is supposed to be delivered in Denver by Friday at 14:30, but know it looks like it's going in circles in Oakland I can only hope it's a scan error:

My iPad has left TA YUAN HSIANG (Taiwan)

Anyone's order still sitting like this "2011-03-18 00:53:00 Package status TA YUAN HSIANG "? Does anyone know how long we will be stuck in Taiwan?

My iPad with this status is now showing "Left FedEx Ramp". Based on the history of its journey thus far, this gets registered in the FedEx system about 10-20 minutes after the flight takes off. So my iPad is on FDX5264 to Osaka Kensai, aka SENNAN-SHI, where it is scheduled to arrive about 2026 local time in Japan. Which is after all of the flights to the US on 18-Mar have left...

Looking at the schedule for 19-Mar, there are 4 FedEx departures from SENNAN-SHI to the US:
Local
Time Destination Via
01:20 MEMPHIS SHANGHAI- FDX0009 MD11
02:20 MEMPHIS ------------- FDX0082 B777
19:05 MEMPHIS SHANGHAI- FDX0048 B777
21:00 MEMPHIS ANCHORAGE FDX0158 MD11

My 64-White-Wifi-engraved iPad was shipped "International Economy" with a "promised delivery" of 22-Mar, so I don't know what will happen next...I just want it to be on one of those flights...
 
Let me tell you about the Apple blues.... =p


I worried about this yesterday. Apple taking our IPADs and dumping them to Taiwan and leaving them there so they can say they"shipped" it within the window is total BS. How is that any different then them all sitting in the factory on the mainland?
 
Do they give you priority mail for free or do you offer to pay extra?
Just wondering
Mine is in transit from lantau island
:/

I'm sitting right there with you. I keep hoping that somehow our next scan will show us in AK or TN. I know not likely, but I can still hope.

I have an IP delivery status, I did ask if there was a way to expedite the shipping/delivery and mentioned I was disappointed not to have that option and the CS told me "no problem, I can take care of that for you". But later I was basically told that expedited shipping wouldn't make much of a difference until it got into the US.

Unless it didn't make the plane cut-off and had to be rescanned in to wait for next flight. Sorry not helping:eek:

No apologies necessary, I like to know the brutal truth. I put in a call to Fedex and they assured me there is ample time for it still to be delivered to the holding location.......today's going to be a good day!

I guess that our iPads will be on the same shipment, and probably going through Memphis before parting ways. I've been following almost the same exact timeline (though I ordered :04 minutes after you)

Glad to see a Wednesday delivery!
