Mine now shows at destination sort facility in Pittsburgh PA. I might get it on Monday. That would be 5 days ahead of the first scheduled ship date and two days ahead of current estimated delivery date.

Mine is going into the Pittsburgh site as well..

What day was it shipped on? And can you post the fedEx tracking info so I can see how yours traveled?

Thanks
 
Odd: I'm in Fort Worth, and mine went to the Memphis facility from Anchorage. I work a few miles from the fort worth facility, and I usually intercept my packages there before they leave on the truck.


It seems like this is taking forever. Fort Worth is not 11 hours away from Kansas City. And that's after it sat in TX for over 24 hours.

Patiently Waiting!

Mine was ordered 3/12 @ 7PM PDT, 16GB AT&T White. Since I saw the first March 12 prepared for shipment, I too have been a bit edgy and quite often checking my order status. So far, no movement absolutely nothing. No matter, I've already started downloading APPS--LOL about 15 so far.:eek:

LOL! I'll wait until mine arrives. I also see that others have ordered the same cover as me and theirs have shipped/delivered. My cover is scheduled to ship 4/11 and deliver by 4/14. I ordered connection kits that were scheduled to ship 3/28 and deliver on 4/1, but I received them on 3/16. I am thinking that I will receive a notification on tomorrow or Monday, at least I am hopeful! ;)
 
March 12 Order - Prepared for shipment

Hey All,

My Order for a Blk 16g ATT just changed to "Prepared for shipment". Plus, a pending charge just appeared on my CC. My order was placed at 2:00 AM on March 12. Originally an April 4 ship, April 7 delivery.

Time to start sending those "day 2" orders?

Here's to good weather and no shipping holdups!

Mine skipped straight from Shenzen to Anchorage. Was beginning to wonder why there were 0 updates for a day and a half.
 
Have been following this thread for a while, but finally registered to post an update since it does seem to be helpful for people.

I ordered a 16g white wifi on Mar 11, 2011 at 12:32 PM PDT. I think it went "Prepared for Shipment" Tuesday afternoon and then shipped out the next day, but I can't remember for sure. It made it to the island on Friday, but since the tracking information never updated, I figured it was stuck there through the weekend. After checking a hour or so ago, everything updated all at once, and it seems mine is on FDX26 and about to land in Memphis in an hour. Not sure why the tracking information lagged, but I'm glad it did.

I'm in Fayetteville, AR, and normally stuff goes from Memphis to Tulsa and then here to NWA for delivery. Hopefully it goes right out to Tulsa and can get to Springdale in time for a Monday delivery.

edit: Just saw the following message at the top of my tracking page. "Thunderstorms at Memphis hub may cause some service delays and disruptions within the U.S. today."

So, maybe I won't get it until Tuesday. :(

Just checked mine (same model and ordering date) and it updated to "prepared" within the last half hour. (happy dance)

If there were an actual que, then you would be six hours in line ahead of me. This waiting has me all wiggly now. I've checked the credit card--no pending charges and the order status--not yet shipped. I'm sitting here singing "Hoepelessly Devoted"...waiting!

I also see that some people are saying that they are not receiving shipping updates, I am thinking they are trying to supress the "Stuck on Island" complaints and not update until the cargo reaches Alaska. ;)
 
Your right, I ordered my on the 11th at 9:15 pm (PT) and the status is Not Shipped Yet.

I'm pretty much thinking I can pick one up at Target or Apple by the end of the weekend without a problem.

Sometime this morning my 64GB ATT Black model w/engraving changed to prepared for shipment. ordered Mar 11, 2011 at 02:46 PM PDT. It's not scheduled to ship until Friday, so this is welcome news. It appears as they're speeding up through orders now. Won't be too much longer until they're at full stock in stores. We are probably starting on the downward slope of the order curve so progression through the order timestamps should be accelerating.

I'll probably have it held at the main Fedex World Center that is right next to my work. Hopefully I'll get it on Apple's estimate date then.

Thanks everyone for their updates, it's helped me get a better understanding when I might be getting my new iPad :)

Are you sure you ordered on the 15th, and did you place your order using the Apple Online Store, or somewhere else? The reason I ask is that all of us who ordered after mid-morning on the 12th from the Apple Online Store have a ship date of April 11th or later. I actually ordered the exact same machine that you did at 11:14AM PT on Saturday, the 12th. So far, I haven't seen any movement, but I expect that to likely change this week given that orders from earlier Saturday morning have already started to go to "prepared for shipment" status.

Received Shipment notification e-mail from Apple on 27 March 2011 at 6:50 AM PDT

According to FedEx it is already in transit in Lantau Island HK (27 March 2011 at 8:50 AM PDT)

Shipment information was sent to FedEx on 26 March 2011 at 3:10 PM PDT

FedEx has a drop down menu that can show times in local, origin or destination timezone. I am showing all the times as the destination timezone, i.e. Pacific time.

I am not sure I'll update much more, as I think the most interesting thing for everyone is when the product was ordered and when it shipped. How long it takes to arrive depends on which part of the country, etc.
