This has to be the best quote in a forum ever!

I was merely responding to your comment that it couldn't be done on any plane other than the A380. Looking at flight plans it looks like a good chunk of FedEx's China to US flights are direct to the hub in Memphis now. This will be a departure for people who've ordered Apple products that shipped from China in the past.
That link is a link to all of the FedEX aircraft currently in the air. If you know your ipad is in HKG in see a flight departing HKG your ipad may be on that flight. If you see a plane going into HKG it could be the inbound plane that will carry your ipad back to the States. That is about all you can determine from that link.So how do you use this? lol
Again, if it is coming FedEx, which most of the ipads appear to be, odds are it likely skips Alaska. As more 777's are delivered to FedEx they are getting rid of MD-11's and fuel stops in Alaska in favor of direct routes. Odds are high that most of the ipads will have a direct flight to Memphis.I used the FedEx tracking to see what time departure it would be on. Most shipments to the US go through Anchorage (from my experience). They then have to clear customs. I'm on the east coast so all my Apple shipments generally go from Anchorage to (Memphis or Newark) to Dulles.
I feel like I'm the only one who hasn't had their black leather smart cover ship![]()
Hopefully it will update later tonight, and hopefully gets here before or when my iPad does
My 16gig wifi iPad2 has been listed as "prepared for shipment" for more then 24 hours now.
Anyone else in the same boat?

My 64gig 3g Verizon, has been "Prepared for Shipment" for just about 24 hours too... Hopefully this means they are shipping VERY soon!
How long was your estimated shipping time? (Mine was 5-7 days.)
Yep! My 16 gb black wifi was prepared for shipping since around 5 pm yesterday. Been refreshing today constantly but nothing has moved. I'm thinking overnight it probably will start moving since it's about 10 AM in China now and I don't think their FedEx planes leave til late PM.
Yeah, mine was 5-7 as well. Ordered at 3:55AM EST on the 11th. Anticipation is killing me.
I would have gone to the store to get it early the 11th and waited in line, but I just got a puppy and didn't want to put him though all that torture.
Lets hope. I want it before the 18th!
When did you order? I got in at 3:55AM on the 11th. I was hoping for shipment by now because of it.
My navy leather cover hasn't shipped either. Hope it gets here when my iPad does!
My order was shipped on Friday at Night!!! and it was at Puerto Rico on saturday, but they wouldn't let me pick up still monday.... So I have to wait until tomorrow to get my IPAD 2 3G-WIFI ATT!! Fedex tracking says that I should receive it at monday 2pm estimated. Here is the photo with the info;
are you sure that is an iPad and not a smart cover? Everyone else seems to be getting their iPads from China.
