I can answer numbers two and three for you: They probably don't have it because supplies are already strained as-is. However, if you call Apple customer service and ask them if they'll do expedited shipping (2-3 day shipping) for another $12.00
I did this because I was in a similar situation (I needed my iPad quicker because I'm leaving for vacation). Hopefully calling them to add expedited shipping works out for you too.

Sweet, so they were able to upgrade your shipping to expedited even though it's coming from China?

But only when I called their support number about my order (it's in the order summary email they sent you). Although having the weekend in the middle messed it up to look longer (It is 2-3 business days for expedited shipping). Here's my tracking log so far:

Shipment information sent to FedEx
 
My iPad just arrived in Newark, NJ, and it's going out to Long Island. It says June 8 delivery but I can't imagine it will take 3 days to get from there to LI.

Does FedEx move packages around on a Sunday? Not deliver, but move from depot to depot? If so, I could see getting it tomorrow, otherwise tuesday. Fingers crossed!!

Same exact here. I'm pretty sure we will get them tomorrow. Mine left NJ at around 1:13 a.m today (Sunday). It probably got to Jamaica by 3 a.m and was then shipped to local depots. If today were Monday I think we would have gotten them even. Fed Ex is always slow to update tracking.

Would be a nice Apple day to get new iPad and watch the Keynote.
 
If all goes well, my iPad will be here tomorrow. The case I ordered from Amazon will be here. And we have the WWDC. It will be like an Applegasm.

I think you're right! Mine is on the truck for delivery! Amazing that it got from China to LI in 4 (or 3) days, depending on the date-line, +13 hours thing. SO EXCITED!
 
Delivered 10:30AM EST today woot! Now to be impatient for the end of the work day.

Shipped June 2nd and ordered May 23rd.
iPad 2 32 GB Black
 
does anybody have any info about shipping by UPS out of China?? If so, would you mind sharing your tracking info. Im very perplexed!!
 
Bah! There's some sort of 'clearance exception' at the sorting facility in Mississauga and my iPad hasn't moved since early this morning. Hopefully they get the lead out and get that sucker moving.

My iPad2 Arrived!!!

Yes lakerchick4life, that appears to be the case. I ordered my 16GB Black WiFi iPad2 with Engraving on 5/25/11 with an estimated ship of 6/9 & estimated Del. on 6/15. Mine was shipped today from China (they are 13hrs ahead of Central Time) & left the FedEx facility at 9:30PM (China Time) with an estimated delivery on 6/9/11 by 4:30PM Central Time.

YES...My ipad2 arrived 2 days earlier than posted when it shipped on Saturday. FedEx delivered it about 30 minutes ago. Good luck to all of you waiting for yours!! The following is the history of mine:

Awesome so that means mine will be shipped out this Friday..I am VERY excited to receive my White 32gb WiFi iPad..it looks SO cool!! Hopefully by the time I receive it I can jailbreak it

Mine arrived 2 days earlier than maybe yours will too!

Well mine sat in Hong Kong without getting on 3 flights to Anchorage/Memphis, and now has sat in Anchorage and missed 2 flights to Memphis. hopefully it will get on the plane this evening and start making its way here, but I'm starting to be skeptical that they are going to hit their delivery date since tonights fedex flight doesn't get in until at least midnight and I'm a good ways away from Memphis. We'll see.

Based on other peoples tracking it looks like once theirs hit the airport in Anchorage it got on the next flight out to Memphis the same day, so I'm just lucky I guess.

It's been six days since my order status was "prepared for shipment"

When they shipped the accessories (same order) they went from Hong Kong directly to Memphis and I had them in hand 3 days after I placed the order.

I hope so, still says on my order that it has not been shipped..tomorrow will be exactly one week since I ordered it(I ordered it on the 1st of June) so I presume by Friday I will read something new about my order..I just hope the jailbreak is released by the time I get my iPad 2 :) yeah yeah I know, wishful thinking
 
It looks like Apple is still way behind on producing and shipping certain models. I ordered the 16GB wifi white on May 27. The original delivery date was June 17. But just today the delivery date was extended to June 20. The listed shipping date remains June 13. Are there carrier problems now?

Same thing happened on my order... at the same time they billed my credit card. I think it means your iPad has been built and is now off to either get engraved or get ready for shipping depending on your order. For mine (which was engraved), it took one or two days to go to prepared for shipping, another two days for me to get the ship notification, then a couple of more days to actually get put on a plane (I'm still waiting for it to leave Anchorage now though.) Once it actually got shipped the delivered by date shifted back to before the original date... it's been bouncing around a little bit since then, but it is still a week before the date they gave me on the order and 10 days before the "adjusted" date when they billed my card.
 
well, mine sat in China for three days, and then it made it to Alaska. Then it went to Louisville (Kentucky) where it missed its next plane (story of my personal life lol) It was supposed to be delivered today by 10:30am, UPS and its still in Louisville, so Im hoping it will make it to Miami tomorrow.
By the way, it shipped 2 days earlier than apple said, and now its being delivered 1 day sooner than apple promised. Im not a happy camper with UPS, or Apple either.:mad:
 
entro4y: Thanks for this additional information. The fact that we actually care about such minutiae is, to put it charitably, kind of funny.

indeed it is... Mine is currently just about over Juneau on it's way to Memphis, so it did finally make a flight!
