My ATT 64GB Black still hasn't shipped -- so frustrating seeing everybody else (and some just like mine) ship when I ordered at 12:54AM :confused::(

My smart cover shipped though, so I suppose I could just fiddle with that. :p

Same here cept I ordered at 3:48 am est

3-5 day usually doesnt count sat and sunday even if they are shipping/working on shipping them those days

Yeah, it said explicitly--"Ships in 3-5 business days."

Business days are Monday through Friday. We ordered early Friday morning, so counting that day they have until Thursday to get them all out and hit the 3-5 business day window.

Based on that, I'm guessing my iPad is also on this flight and should arrive in Anchorage shortly.

I ordered my AT&T 32G White at 1:11 PST Cover was shipped 3/12 but only stated that the information was sent. I've been checking the tracking info periodically and this message is what just came up:

Everyone needs to know that every iPad 2 is being shipped into Memphis. I know a lot about FedEx, I know how they do things, and trust me there is no need to panic or get upset. Also you have to understand Apple is not going to ship the iPads based on priority of who ordered first and whose is more expensive, they are just trying to get the orders shipped as fast as possible. This is what I know, if you ordered an iPad when the shipping estimate was 3-5 business days, you will receive your iPad by the end of this week, at the latest Monday, if there is something wrong with your order Apple will notify you as soon as they can. Just because you see in your order status "Not Yet Shipped" does not mean there is something wrong with your order, what it does mean is that they have not been scanned, but trust me they have been shipped, once again I am talking only to the people who ordered their iPad when the shipping was 3-5 business days. FedEx and Apple are two of the greatest companies of All-Time, they are not perfect, but pretty dang close, they know what they are doing, just be patient, like I said you will have your new iPad 2 by the end of this week, at the latest Monday, no matter which model you ordered. Any questions you have I will try to answer.

My other question is, doesn't Apple charge your Credit/Debit card once it is shipped? In my case, my card has not been charged and I don't forsee Apple shipping a product for home delivery without payment.

I'm thinking the one I ordered...Verizon 32gb black simply isn't a finished product yet.

My iPad and a lot of others are on that flight. Isn't the flight from China to Alaska about 10-11 hours? Those iPads should be landing in the next couple of hours.

That would give me hope that the subsequent flight from Alaska to Tennessee could leave before COB today.

I hope my iPad is on that flight too, but mine says it left the ramp at 2011-03-14 20:15:00

So I don't think it is

Has to clear customs, so I doubt it.

I think mine is on that flight as well, my delivery is estimated for Thursday. So my guess on schedule is:

Arrive in Alaska today.
Arrive in hub in Memphis tomorrow.
Arrive at my closest fed ex facility on Wednesday
Out for delivery to me Thursday morning.


I'd love for it to get sped up a day though! I won't get home from work until 8pm or later on Thursday. No worries with getting the package as all our packages get signed for and held by the concierge in the front desk of my condo building. Just that I won't have much time/energy to mess around with it until Friday if it comes on Thursday.

But I figure it will be Thursday. I seldom have packages arrive ahead of the original estimated delivery date. But who knows, my smart cover was just delivered and it was originally scheduled for tomorrow by UPS--and that's the first one I've gotten early in a long while.
 
First Batch — No Shipping Notice Yet

IPAD WI-FI 3G 64GB BLACK-USA MC775LL/A (ATT Version)
Order Date: Mar 11, 2011 at 12:58 AM PDT
Ships: 3 - 5 business days
Delivers: Mar 18 - Mar 25

I did order the Navy leather cover, which is to arrive tomorrow (15 Mar). Apple Protection Plan was also processed immediately. No word yet on the iPad 2 shipping.
 
Curious, but has anyone had a white device ship at all yet? Not seeing many confirmations here. Really hoping this isn't the white iPhone all over again.
