Prepared For Shipment (Since Saturday or Sunday, I forget):

IPAD WI-FI 3G 32GB BLACK - VERIZON-USA

Shipped on March 12 via FedEx:

IPAD WI-FI 3G 16GB WHITE - VERIZON-USA
 
Ok I have a little input here.
Narita Shi is in the unfortunate area
Of Japan around Tokyo I guess it's an
Good sign that they could even be sent there

As for those of us getting 64 gbs, do you
Think they are taking longer because of
Banking limits? I intend to call my bank since
They can be really difficult about clearing
Payments over a certain cost. 64 gbs are clearly
The most expensive so they maybe the only
Ones having this problem

Nope. I regularly make higher dollar purchases throughout each month. Online 5K purchases go through without so much as a hiccup.

I suppose some banks/customers may have the issue depending on their available credit. But it's not the rule for the rest of us.
 
Seriously, arent't there like 200,000 chinese people working on these damn things?


dude... WE are working as hard as we can! I will personally make sure i glue your screen on real tight alright? none of that yellow blotches. I promise.;);)
 
You have the EXACT same tracking info than me, even same time!. I ordered the 32GB Black-Wifi, destination: Derby Live, VT. Ordered at 01:01AM PST. What model and when did you order ? Where does your package goes ?

Thank you!

INTERESTING... I have the EXACT same model ordered and my tracking info is EXACTLY the same. Mine's destined for New Hampshire. I wonder if all the North East iPads are going via NARITA-SHI.

I wish I knew where it was heading from there.
 
Not only does it still say "not yet shipped", the money has been credited back to my account as the hold was lifted. But theres no mention of the order being cancelled on the status page.

Mother effer!! what is going on?!

I would guess that there is a certain time frame where a hold can only be on your account for so long before it is actually charged and the delay on Apple's side has cause the Hold to expire. Just my guess.

I will do my level best to not take that wording

Is just before the 8s and we are not yet thirty.
It may just be that my bank has lower
Limits. Forgive me for throwing out possibilities

Why should it be on its way to you? It clearly says "3 - 5 business days". That means it shouldn't ship until end of business Thursday -- if you can even count Friday as a business day, since that's the day you purchased it.
 
I am more sure than ever that at the VERY END of the "3-5 business day" purgatory apple has put us in, those of who are still Not Yet Shipped are going to get an email with corporate spin on it like "Due to the overwhelming demand, we are unable to ship your product. Your business is very important to us... blah, blah, blah"

Guarantee Apple is going to screw many, many of us...

Just called apple again to protest over the fact that I've counted 41 people on this forum alone who ordered AFTER I DID who have had their ipads shipped. Got the same corporate BS line.... we still are within the range.... blah, blah, blah

Got up at 4am EST to order and it's been 'Prepared for Shipment' since Saturday. Seems like I could have ordered a few hours later and had just as much of a chance at having it delivered this week.

I work for FedEx and searched on my address - there is definitely NOT a tracking # generated for my shipment yet (other than the Smart Cover which is due to arrive Friday). So anyone who had hopes that Apple didn't update the scans and our iPads will suddenly show up, it doesn't seem very likely... :mad:

One of mine has said in Alaska in Transit since early yesterday and the other still says intl shipment release in alaska since early yesterday...

I wonder why it hasn't changed yet? it seems its been stuck for over 24Hours? anyone else?

Don't worry, it is still within the range. If you ordered a 3G version, it might be delayed. Unlike the others which are arriving sooner, yours might arrive by early next week. 3G versions are being delayed for some reason

Mine is on the truck and out for delivery!! :)
 
Suggestion

Get into twitter and tweet "Hey Apple, where's my iPad" on Apple's twitter "page". They hate bad press and if we all make some noise maybe they'll take notice. Right now it looks like they were woefully unprepared for this product launch!

Yes, 64GB 3G ATT Black.

I hate this obessive compulsive secrecy Apple has.... if they screwed up and botched the 3G versions, WHY NOT MAKE A FRICKIN' STATEMENT AND ACTUALLY TELL US WE ARE GOING TO BE SCREWED??????

But I have seen MANY MANY MANY other 3G's go out. My guess is Apple is shafting many people with 64GB so they can use the memory in units destined for their stores to make a big publicity push to show how popular it is, all the while shafting those of us that got up at 4AM

If this is the way Tim Cook is going to run apple after jobs is dead, I want no part of it

It could be Apple. I have a very high limit on my cards. The MC permitted the $1174 for a 16 and 32 gig wifi, but when apple billed one ipad, and a few hours later billed the other, I find out, they placed another hold for the same amount on the same card. The CC company bulked and said no. I called and they explained it to me. I actually understood, even if I did not explain it quite right here.

I called apple and gave them another card just to be safe and no problem. Both of mine are on the planes. However, I called the second credit card company and ask about the hold on my card by apple, I wanted to make sure the charges would be correct after this mess. A very nice lady said there was not a problem, but apple had placed 5 different holds on the card. Start adding that up. Visa did not care about the holds, and today the charge came thru correctly and the holds are gone.

One ipad on each card, with a combined limit over 30 grand, you figure it out, I can't.

I think you are being a little extreme, Apple simply can't meet demand that is all it is. There is no conspiracy to sell your iPad in the store just to create news. They already have news because of you getting up @ 4AM and thousands of people standing in line. So don't worry if you ordered in time it will come, there are plenty of people on here with 64GB 3G models that have shipped.
 
I ordered a 64 gig, 3G AT&T, black. Status is still not yet shipped. I ordered at 1:13 on Friday. I have checked my bank account. The money has been in the pending column since Friday but with no amount listed. Anyone else? I'm thinking I may need to call and check.
