Same tracking info as you....scheduled for delivery 3/23 by 4:30 in Philly....any chance that is going to happen? :D

I'm in DC - same tracking, same projected delivery - I figure either Newark or Memphis. I'm excited. My mood has shifted from sulky frustration to anticipation. (Only downer is those two posters who state FedEx lost their shipments. Please, no!)

I'm in Tyson's Corner VA., just outside DC. Same Tracking. Just waiting
for departure!!
 
Awaiting iPad

Arlington, VA. Same tracking info, same hope! Will this crusade come to an end tomorrow. Probably we all will miss Lantau Island. Nothing to pull your hair over. Apple just impressed me. They can do much better with other stuff than the iPad. Ordered memory upgrade Sunday evening, received it today and had the local Apple store install it within 10 minutes. Great! I love Apple!:D
 
I'm betting Anchorage to Memphis; I'm hoping plenty of flights to Dulles - then on the truck dropping yours off first and then continuing onto DC (just over the Key Bridge).

Please, don't forget me before the truck crosses the Key Bridge!
 
Aw crap

Guess I missed the flight to memphis. Boooooo!

16gb AT&T black stuck in Lantau still I guess. Ordered at 1:05am launch day. Delivery still says the 23rd and I'm in Orlando. That's obviously not happening. Any chance I get it by the 24th?

FDX 28 Anchorage to Memphis wheels up 3:58 pm local time. Where are the departure scans from FDX 94? Are we all on FDX 28? Hit those Refresh buttons!
 
Well, I got some drama.

Yahoo tracking:
2011-03-22 15:57:00 Held at Sort Facility ANCHORAGE, AK

FedEx tracking:
Mar 22, 2011 3:57 PM In transit ANCHORAGE, AK

Same timestamps, different status messages. Who to believe? So far Yahoo has been far more reliable.

Looks like my iPads are on their way to Newark!!!

I think that's why we all reacted with such frustration - Apple is not "normally" this bad. I'm hoping they now understand that skipping preorders is a bad idea, and will allow them for the iP5. Assuming my iPad2 arrives tomorrow with all of yours, I won't clutter up this thread with my posts. However, I do want to thank all members of this community of Lantau Islanders for all the humor, information, and moral support you provided.
 
Dont worry brothers

Im still here with you guys in this journey even though I have my ipad 2 on the kitchen table helping me cook. My 32GB is out there somewhere with the other AT&Ts

This is FDX 28 to Memphis, right? I hope it gets on the Newark flight that arrives from Memphis at 6 am tomorrow.
 
Another anxious DC area resident here. Having my 64 gb Black ATT delivered to Arlington, VA. Been sitting in Anchorage since 6:00 am and got Release for Delivery around noon.

I see that both Memphis bound flights have left, but my records were not updated either way as being "Held" or "Left". So, I'll be optimistic and hope that it made one of those and I'll get it tomorrow which was my original estimated delivery date (though it was pushed back to Thursday during the "island fiasco").

9:30 pm Update Tracking suddenly updated with "2011-03-22 15:58:0 Left FedEx Sort Facility ANCHORAGE, AK" -- which means I made the FX 28 - Departing at 4:05, arriving Memphis just before 1:00 am. Hoping for a quick resort to make the 3:30am flight to Dulles and out for delivery to me just after lunch!

Home Stretch....

Nope, that's flight fx92 direct to Newark. Arrives 2am tonight. Left at 7:53pm EST. If you live in NJ that's the flight you wanna be on...
 
Checking checking... West Coast people. No one missed the FDX86 flight right? (like a status saying it's being held at the sorting facility)

Yahoo tracking says "Left the FedEx Sort Facility," but I don't know if that means my iPad2 has left Anchorage or just moved across the cargo area. These tracking records don't appear to tell us if our iPad2's are on a flight, but only when they land somewhere. When mine left Ta Yuan Hsiang, Yahoo only said "Left the FedEx ramp."

Interesting. Mine says released for delivery. And on the fedex website it says in transit. What the hell does that mean?
 
Released for delivery..then..

FYI:
Mine was released along with others at 1332..
It has now been updated on Yahoo to "Held at sort facility" at 16:42.
FedEx's tracker indicates "in transit"..
Don't know which is which or what..
