Nice, so I should if all things are equal and the process is the same for this flight as it was for others, see my iPad tomorrow.

I assume that would depend on whether you did the Free shipping or expedited.
There's no reason why it should not hit newark by 6am tomorrow.
 
That was my experience ....

I ordered on day 1 at 12:47am PDT. From the time the pad was in the air 3/14 (China Time). It arrived at my place in San Diego at 10am on 3/15. Your wait is almost over.

jddar: Question

My 16GB AT&T White iPad 2 ordered March 12 @ 7 PM PDT has been canceled (by me.) I bought the exact same model at the Atlanta Lenox Square Apple Store this very good morning. So, someone else will be moving one place closer to delivery.

I've played around with it for a couple of hours and I have to say, I absolutely LOVE it. No dead pixels, backlight bleed, etc. It is updating to 4.3.1 right now--taking forever. Hopefully, you all will get your new iPads much sooner than you expect. I know your really going to be quite happy with them. Thanks for keeping me entertained these past two weeks.

JDDAR: I too live in ATL and have an ATT 3G on order but a blk 64-gig - I have tried unsuccessfully now on 3 diff (very early attempts) to pick one up at Perimeter....was #5 in line yesterday (Sun) and while they had numerous WiFi models and a few 16GB AT&Ts in Blk - they only had one 64 GB in white Verizon. I have been reluctant to try Lenox...was the line/wait long? Did they have any 64GB 3G ATTs? I'm getting desperate but worn out at the same time....esp since I didn't order mine until 3/17...not supposed to ship until 4/21! uggghh....would be curious to know if you don't mind sharing. Thx

so you have not been paying attention to the last two pages ? :p:D
 
Does anyone know the flight no. the next flight is out of Anchorage to Memphis?

From looking at flight history between the 2 airports I'd guess it's going to be FDX 94 or FDX 28. I think if you look a few pages back, Cresence did a good job tracking flights between these 2 airports. Most left around 4pm Alaska time I think. Which would be about 3 hours from now.

You can check here for all fedex flights

and this shows flights between PANC and KMEM

shipping timelines

My best guess is that you can track orders placed in the iPad 2 order tracker to get some clue about how much time iPads 2 got stuck in Lantau island ... I suggest tracking a couple of orders that has been placed a few hours or a day before yours to know when will your ship ...

Its funny that some called what is a happening as "The Curse of Lantau Island"" :)

Share track your order and hundreds of others' order over here www.appleordertracker.com

Excellent, seems like Apple, got a solid grip on their shipping timelines, looking at the order details posted here, and on the iPad 2 order tracker site
www.appleordertracker.com it seems that now they are shipping orders earlier than originally expected. That's great news ...

Mine got shipped 5 days earlier
