I've been using the Yahoo site, too. it seems to update quicker than the official UPS website. Glad there's finally some movement. :)

Yahoo shows same as UPS for me... UPS is doing a wonderful job tracking my package...

All I got is:
Billing Scan in China
Origin Scan in Chengdu, China
Import Scan in Louisville, KY

Scheduled delivery is updated to 5/6 from 5/5. So I think it will be here tomorrow, but UPS wont tell me where it is now... It will prolly just show up at my office tomorrow... and add a 4th item to my Tracking list... 'Delivered Silver Spring, MD'
 
Nice joining this thread Apple promised by May 6th for my expedited-ship order, was delivered today, good luck to the future buyers in here.

Forgot to add, the original order date and was April 18th at 8:12am eastern time zone USA :D

All in all 2.5 weeks from order to my door ; proud recruit to a blk 64GB AT&T model coming from white Verizon 64Gig iPad 2

Future buyers keep in mind this is expedited, otherwise I'd still be waiting and my order might still be in China for delivery next week
 
My ipad left Chengdu, China on May 5 at 9:45 PM and is in transit to Louisville, Kentucky. There is no delivery date and I live in NYC. When do you guys believe it will get here?

Btw, I'm suprised its not on its way to HK or Alaska!
 
I'm still trying to figure this one out. It certainly does not look like progress that's for sure....

LOL is this for real?

I feel like the universe likes to **** with me.

Unfortunately, its for real. I was looking forward to starting my weekend with my new toy but now it is not looking so good. I am the king of s*** luck as well.
 
Try this to track your package: http://smallbusiness.att.yahoo.com/r-packageTracker-s-ups

I believe that your iPad, mine, and a few other member iPads are on the same flight to Louisville, KY. For some reason, it doesn't show up on the main UPS tracking page.

Unfortunately, the Yahoo site is giving the same confusing tracking details. Still not sure why it went from arriving in KY to departing China all on the same day. I guess I'll find out if it re-arrives in HK soon. This sure is an exercise in patience.

this is a question meant for those that have changed their shipping method by calling apple whilst waiting for their iPad 2 to ship. I was wondering, seeing how i got the standard free shipping, if there was a way to get it to come a week earlier than its intended delivery date by upgrading shipping method. thanks for any replies

It might be worth the call to ask Apple, but from what I've seen about when people are seeing shipments vs when they've ordered, there's no diff between standard and expedited.
 
Hey guys, I just have a quick question..

I'm ordering my iPad 2 tomorrow, and the expected ship on the apple site is 1-2 weeks.

Can anyone guess as to the estimated ship date? Like.... whether it's usually been closer to the end of this, or mid, or beginning of the first week?
(Like.. what has it been for you?)

Thanks guys :D I'm excited for my iPad, just wish they weren't sold out everywhere!

When I ordered mine the ship status was estimated at 3-5 weeks. It took right at 3 weeks to ship. I'd venture to say that at this point, based on what I've been reading, it's more than likely going to take every bit of 2 weeks.

Note "ships" and not "delivers". Total is more like 3 weeks, possibly more given all the UPS mess.

Still, it's actually quite a lot of fun joining in with your forum buddies and moaning about UPS/Fedex etc - all part of the life of being an early-adopting apple nut :D Enjoy!

This is possibly my last post in this thread until iPad 3......

Here is the fabled AT&T 64GB 3g model....very rare in the wild population, very common in the land of China and HK>

Oh, I'm excited.

I definitely didn't like waiting for my iMac because it was upgraded, so it took extra time and that was only a 24 hour shipping time period!
To the site, I tried it. Everything was out of stock :(
I'll be sure to inform everyone my rants about it, because I'm sure, from everything I hear, there will be some problems :) Let's just hope not.
 
Same flight

Woohoo! We're on the same flight. Thanks!

Hey, mine is with yours too. I wonder when it will arrive hong kong, and US today (friday)? It should go to Miami.

My problem is my iPad is for my girlfriend and she is traveling on Friday night and there will be no one at home, so I'll probably have to cancel the order.

Do you know if it's possible? because mine should have been delivered yesterday but it wasn't, and I paid for the 2-3 expedited shipping (13 dollars).

Apparently mine just left Hong Kong. I just saw this scan show up. It originally said it was already enroute to Louisville.

EDIT: This is most likely the flight it's on: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/CPA80/history/20110506/0850Z/VHHH/PANC

I ordered April 25tb, and I'm still waiting for the notice online of "Prepared for Shipping". My estimated shipping is May 7th with a delivery or May 9th. I'm guessing it'll take the whole two weeks and then maybe a bit more, considering the added international demand.

Sigh... Going out of town in a week and I was hoping to have it by then.
