I think maybe you were lucky? I live in NYC and it's going on day 5 (saturday would be day 4) of my 'expedited' delivery and nothing today. Last scan it hadn't even left china. UPS sucks.

They tried to deliver mine yesterday, but I wasn't home. I called UPS the day before and they said that Saturday delivery was unlikely, but that I could check the tracking info to make sure. When I left at Noon there had been no activity, so I assumed that they wouldn't deliver, but at 3PM they came by.

that's irritating. it seems like nobody at UPS has the slightest idea what's going on. if you talk to three different people, you get three different stories.
 
Mine just went Prep. for Shipment. Ordered black 3G 16GB on 19th of April. Delivery still scheduled for 23th of May (though the recent status change keeps up the hope for a delivery sooner than that ;) )

Exciting week in front of me :)
 
I ordered mine on Monday May 2nd and received it on Friday May 6th. The 32gb wifi+3g verizon model. It came all the way from China and flew in to Memphis and then came to massachusetts friday.

Wow, who'd ya have to blow to get service like that?

Ordered a black 16gb wifi on 4/25, it got here yesterday, 5/8. I shouldn't complain but it's a birthday present for my husband and he was home when the UPS truck came. Thankfully, our UPS guy won't come up the driveway anymore(tow truck was involved last time he did), and my husband was out back and didn't hear him at the end of the driveway. It's safely hidden in my car for now.

UPS has never come before noon or after 5, Monday-Friday, and they have never, ever, ever delivered here on a Saturday, I was told there was no Saturday delivery for my area. "My area" being out in the middle of nowhere, towns so small we don't have a PO, a police station, or a single traffic light.

Wow I'm happy for everyone who got Saturday deliveries, but admittedly jealous! The only update I got today was a departure scan from UPS in chek lap kok at 1pm NYC time. I'm holding out against all hope it will make it tomorrow but I'm thinking it's a long shot. Anyone think it's possible?

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, but I don't think you'll get it tomorrow. After chek lap kok, mine went to Korea and then the US via Anchorage, AK. It's finally supposed to be here tomorrow. Here's the path its taken thus far:

Mine literally just shipped too, with exact same original order dates and ship dates, so they are in the same batch. I am happy but will be happier when I get it!
 
ordered april 26th

original ship date 5/10
original delivery date 5/12

looks to be ahead of schedule..

package just shipped on 5/6
new delivery date 5/11

Same exact thing for me. Checked the UPS tracking this morning and now there is no delivery date showing. Stupid UPS.

I'm married, I don't do that anymore;)

Seriously though, I think UPS must have upgraded a bunch of shipments, because I used the free shipping. I think I just got lucky to have ordered around the time Apple started getting flak for UPS not hitting their delivery deadlines.

I just had a chance to take a quick peek, I'm absolutely dying to fire it up but I know how I am about my new toys, I'd have been PO'd if he had poked at my first gen before he gave it to me. So I'll restrain myself.....somehow.

Hope your's was delivered by now.

Mine just showed up, but I'm not ripping it open just yet as I want to exchange it for a 32GB or 64GB model.

Still waiting for mine. I think 64GB is overkill on a device like this. I had a 64GB first generation iPad, and I never came close to filling it up. That said, I'm wishing I'd ordered a 32GB. It would be nice to have the extra space just in case. I just don't think I can go through that shipping process again! :)
 
GOT MINE THIS MORNING!!!!! I am so excited!

Ordered 4/22
Delivered 5/9

Not too bad! Can't do much with it now since I'm not at home, but tonight will be an adventure! My first iPad!!! :)

Hope all of you who are still waiting get yours soon!
 
The e-mail I got from Apple says it'll be delivered by the 13th.

Yahoo's UPS status update service gave me some more info than UPS's standard tracking link:

 
Delivered!

Ordered white 64GB wifi 4/21
Shipped 5/4
UPS delivered it this morning!! Woot!!

Hang in there guys, it's worth the wait! :D
