Yah mine's stuck in the same China purgatory as yours. Bounced around the same cities with all of these "delivery" and "departure scans". I got an e-mail Monday morning saying it's being shipped from China, and now (Friday morning) my latest update was about 8 hours ago saying it has been shipped out of Hong Kong and is en route to Louisville. The delivery date did say Monday (5/16) so we'll see if it sticks to that. Would have been nice to have it for the weekend though!
Got a tip for us?

Nah it will probably bounce around China for a few days. Probably won't come until the date they told you.
WOOHOO...I had ordered online with June 1st estimated delivery date (64 g AT&T) and saw another poster saying the "larger size" iPads were in stock aplenty at his/her local Apple Store, so even though I've been calling all week I called again today and wouldn't you know it, they have what I'm looking for AND I got to choose the color I wanted rather than settling for what was left.
If your iPad hasn't shipped yet keep calling those stores (if you have one close enough). I had called ahead last week and by the time I got to the store they were sold out of what I (thought) I wanted which turned out to be a blessing because I ended up changing my mind and now got what I know I really want.

does the apple store in knoxville tn have ipads yet if anyone is around that area here on macrumors my ipad 2 is on back order still from macmall it was ordered the 1st of may they told me that the had a shipment of them coming in to memphis the next day and would u know it memphis has been flooded you would think they would tell you something
It looks like yours is moving way faster. U should get it by next week. The hardest thing is to get out of asia; Mine is been in there for 4 days. So you can imagine
I ordered engraved 32 GB wifi white model.
original ship date 5/16 arrival 5/17
yday arrival date changed to 5/20
Today it says preparing to ship...what does it mean? Will it ship this weekend or monday.
Let me guess, you placed order on 4/30?
Because same exact thing happened to my order, ship 5/16 delivery 5/17, but yesterday it delayed delivery to 5/20.
It will ship over the weekend, I am optimistic so I think I am gonna get it before 5/20, probably 5/18
In the us finally!!

I could only wish. We'll see. When I ordered last April 30, its delivery date is initially set to May 18 but when I got the shipment notification yesterday, the delivery date is now May 19.

It should not be 5 days, my MacBook Air got here overnight from China, well counting time difference it's really 1.5 days.
I just looked at my order, same change as yours. Shipped on 5/14, as of 1 hr ago it's at the FedEx facility in Shenzhen. Under parcel type, it said "International Economy Distribution - Indirect", I guess it's gonna make detour within Asia, so delivery is showing 5/19 as of now, I am in New York as well.
If you are lucky, it will be on air straight from Shenzhen to USA (KY for UPS, NY for FedEx), then you receive it much quicker.

WTH? I Ordered mine 5/1 at ET Noon. White 32GB WiFi Only. Mine originally said Ships 5/16 delivers 5/17. It still says "Not Yet Shipped" and the deliver date is now 5/23, ship date still the same?

After four days of my iPad simply sitting in china and not moving I grabbed one from a local Target. They had a couple in stock and I couldn't be happier. My girlfriend wanted one as well so if my first order ever leaves China she can have the one but it's incredibly frustrated at the pace this iPad is shipping having ordered it on 4/29.
Yes finally!!
Ordered on the 2nd and it finally got shipped today right at midnight.
God I hope it doesn't have light bleed issues and is one of the new and improved ipads. I'll return it immediately if it isn't perfect
