I'm on the move...looking at the airport schedules it appears my unit will be on FedEx flight 158 out of Hong Kong for Anchorage.:cool:

Talk to me Goose...talk to me.

my FedEx tracker hasn't changed, but the Yahoo one has me leaving the ramp at both Lantau and Chek Lap Kok about an hour before FDX 158 left. Assuming I'm on that flight.

Sched arrival is about 12:30pm AK time, which is 1:30PDT, 2:30MDT, 3:30CDT, and 4:30EDT.

Hopefully it didn't fall off a conveyor belt at the the Fedex facility.

I had the exact same scan times as you for your last 2 scans. Check the Yahoo Small Business FedEx tracker. more info, more accurate. Shows mine left Ramp at HK airport this morning(night in HK) - http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/r-packageTracker-s-fedex

I noticed a direct flight to Memphis taking off after the AK one. I hope they put my iPad on the Memphis flight! I guess we'll see!

yeah I could be on either flight, the Anchorage flight and then go direct to chicago, or the memphis flight and a short hop to Chicago. We'll see later today where it lands. Though if it lands today, then it can be in Chicago tomorrow night and I could possibly get a Wednesday delivery instead of Thursday as scheduled? I hope.

Edit-- We may both be on Anc Flight, because it arrives at 12:30pmish AK time which is 3:30pm CDT (memphis time) and clearing customs and another 7 hour flight to Memphis may get it there before or at the same time as FDX 98 to Memphis which arrives 11:20pm CDT.

Been tracking my fathers Ipad , according to Yahoo Tracking , it left Lantau ramp at 20:05 , does that coordinate with any of the FedEx flights? Or am I doing a tour on the Island for a couple of days like I did with mine which was ordered first 10 minutes of online ordering ?
 
It looks like the WiFi ones are zooming along.

Meanwhile, my AT&T 3G 16GB Black ordered on the 17th is still "Not Yet Shipped".

Sigh. Why did my wife only authorize me for the popular one? :(

(yeah, I know, first-world problem.)

FX 098 To: Memphis Departed 21:45 HK Time. That arrives 11:20pm Central time, so if you're on that flight expect a midnight update, but I would say you are.

I placed my order for a black 32GB Wi-Fi+3G today. It shows ship date of May 2. What seems to be the trend these days? Do you guys get your shipments earlier than the estimated time, and by how much? Thanks.

My order date was March 22nd and a delivery date of May 2nd. Original delivery date was 29 April, but they bumped it back. I don't see you getting yours anytime soon...

I received my order about one week before the initial estimated time.
