I feel like I'm the only person who didn't order until 3/12.. lol!

I totally under estimated how quickly they'd sell out on Friday so figured i'd just be able to walk into the Apple Store and pick one up.. silly me! :confused:

Nah. I ordered on 3/12, wont ship till 4/11. Waiting in line at the Columbia, MD store for two hours until the line was cut just a few people in front of me.. so its going to be a long wait.
 
AHHHHH! I can't stop refreshing the Order Details Page!!

Why don't they just ship the dang thing!?!?!??!?!!!

If I see Prepared Shipment Again I think im gonna crack!

You could be in my shoes! Mine is going to ship on April 1st and I should get it on the 6th.
 
This isn't scientific, but it seems that there aren't any 32gb AT&T models that have shipped yet. Mine hasn't even changes to "prepared for shipment". Hoping for some news soon.

Anyone else with this model ordered seeing any action yet?

I don't think we will be seeing any shipping any time soon. I ordered 32Gb At&t White @12:47am

Verizon, but same model.
 
What about those whose orders were @ 12:40AM? WHAT ABOUT THEM? No shipping info yet!

Depends...are you talking about the now infamous 3G models? Or the 64GB models?

Your words of encouragement are very much appreciated!

Just doing my part dude, been there, done that - I know EXACTLY what you're feeling right now. Obsessively and compulsively refreshing the order details page or just *begging* for Mail to chime and show your shipment notice. UGH.

Look at the bright side - you'll be getting yours WAY quicker than those who ordered a few hours later. :p

I'll trade your prepared to ship for my not yet shipped...

I ordered black @ 1:06a.m.

Not Yet Shipped.

And I know they are still within the window but I don't care. If it hasn't been charged to me by the time I wake up tomorrow morning, I am canceling the order. Don't say fast shipping and make me wake up in the middle of the night to order online if you are going to wait a week to ship it. It is just BS.

Word. My CC hasn't even been charged yet. Although $350 of the purchase was used with Apple giftcards. Truly think the verizon black 32gb 3G isn't even a finished good yet.
 
Want some cheese with that whine?

At least your not in the "yet to ship" crowd who ordered at butt crack of dawn and probably won't get the ipad until next week. I have little sympathy for you.

And I have little sympathy for you since you're obviously a hypocrite.

You'll get your iPad on time. The exact same thing happened to me last year.

I'm an airline pilot - and I'd like to think I know a little bit about airline logistics, but my question (not complaint) still remains why they would make all these small stops. And I'd still like to know what SENNAN-SHI is.

You can check here: https://www.doodle.com/rv4eg552kvnxyfk2

Or in Excel format, I just pulled all the responses from the poll: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2057907/Doodle.xls

Mine is 64 GB White ATT ordered on 3:40 PDT. Nothing yet.

Same boat. Ordered mine at 1:15 PST Friday morning -- 32GB Wifi/AT&T 3G in Black. Haven't heard anything.

I ordered later in the day on 3-11 once I saw the Apple stores starting to sell out of the model I wanted (couldn't get out till later in the evening), pretty much same boat as you, I'd guess.

I'm ok with it coming the first week of April (April 6th is delivery date), but I'm hoping it moves up.

Ok well now i don't feel so alone... my ship date is also 4/11, I'm hoping that's just a safe estimate on Apple's part and that we'll get them sooner... will just have to wait and see i guess!

Hypocrite in what way? Indeed I will probably get the ipad I ordered on time (per apple's shipping estimates), but for people who ordered the same model after me and already have shipping information leaves me to believe this whole process has been FUBAR.
 
Here's a new status update on mine:

Mar 14, 2011 11:51 AM
Int'l shipment release
ANCHORAGE, AK


Guess it's passed customs and ready to get on the next leg of the journey, presumably to Memphis.

Same here.

One day there will be hundreds of tiny little helicopters that fly from airports directly to our houses at 1000mph :)

I have decided to believe the theory that all the 32 GB 3G iPads are on the same palette and somehow missed the scanner.:D

My Smart Cover should be here tomorrow and my credit card has been charged for both 32 GB 3G ATT iPad and cover.

DITTO!!!!!!!!!!!

I ordered at 0132pt/0432et.

64GB ATT 3G

Not Yet Shipped
 
I just don't understand how it is that they've charged me for my ATT-64GB-Black and I'm still in "Not Yet Shipped" Status... in fact, they charged me on Saturday!
 
Anyone know when the next flight from HK to AK will happen ? My last tracking info was :

March 15th, 1:01 AM - In transit - Lantau Island, HK

I guess my iPad 2 will fly to Alaska soon, next flight maybe ?? :D

Anyone knows when that new flight will happen ?

I ordered at 1:01AM PST on March 11th, a Black Wifi 32 GB.

Thanks to all !

Being an Airline pilot, I would have thought that you would know what Google is.

Sennan-Shi is a suburb city in the Osaka Prefecture of Japan.

I am also wondering.....

There's no way ALL of the iPads that were ordered for the lower 48 states are all headed to Memphis. I understand it is a major distribution center and all, but for all the first orders to be promised on the same day means the orders would have to be split up amongst a few flights to different regions.

How is it that someone in New York is going to get his the same time I will get mine in So Cal if they all go to Memphis first. Fed Ex isn't going to split the orders and withhold some of them so we can all get them at the same time. I am pretty sure a lot of them will go to Memphis, but we will also get a large delivery in Los Angeles or Ontario.

On an unrelated note, Is it possible to call Fed-Ex with my tracking number and have the delivery redirected to my work? We get daily Fed-Ex dropoffs, so it's not like they would make an extra trip.
