Mine has also shipped at 10.11am.

Only one point for concern is that it says that delivery will be on or before the 19th March!!

I hope that is meant to say the 16th March!!

Ya mines saying the same:



Estimated Delivery Date (Subject to change) Mar*19,*2012
 
Guess we won't be getting them tomorrow?

There is no way Apple would personally call all of us and say the iPad would be here tomorrow if they weren't going to be.

They know we need to arrange someone to sign for it.

The woman I spoke to told me I would be able to track it from Thursday night.
I'm still waiting on my shipped email.

I agree... They can't say "sorry it's delayed, out fault", then ring us to say "sorry but it will be with you on the 16th", too Opps "Sorry for the wrong info and delay" lol...

That would just be mad...

Exactly.

I think ours is like "special shipment", since they "pulled out all the stops" to get our iPads to us on time. Therefore I don't think what it says on our order status matters. What will matter is when we get our tracking number, which I was told I would get tonight.

Mines showing TnT tracking number, but TnT website ain't showing no details when I use it as yet..

81954xxxxx type number
 
I'm still not expecting mine until next week, as both of my iPad 3 orders changed to Preparing For Shipment earlier this morning, and are still showing that, but with a delivery date of March 19th-20th.

Also, I didn't get any phone call saying my order would now be delivered on time, like most of the rest of you seem to have had.
 
After originally being told I've been put back to the 20th I got an email from apple saying shipped and said delivery date 19th or before.

When I goto track my order it says estimated delivery 16th March !!!

Wooo Hooo !!!
 
Anyone know what shops are stocking the new iPad in Northern Ireland tomorrow apart from the actual apple store in Belfast?

Cheers - I am working until 9am so wont be able to make the 8am launch anyway. Going by last years launch it was easy enough to walk into one of the shops around 9pm on launch day and get one of the larger models. I called PC World and was told that they do not know when they are even getting them for England and the launch is suppose to be tomorrow so I guess we can rule them out. Looks like it will have to be the Belfast store.
 
Craaaaap, they've shipped via TNT. I've never had much luck with them in the past, usually delivering a day later than expected. Always had top service from UPS though.

On the plus side, I'm sure Apple have pulled strings with the carriers since it's an important product launch so fingers crossed TNT actually deliver it on time.

I'm still really pleased Apple have taken our disappointment seriously and done what was needed to rectify the situation, definitely very much appreciated.
 
Shipped
Via TNT will be here tomorrow
I'm closets there depo so if no on in il call up easy


I would like to say thanks to apple
Yes they were going to delay my item, but now it's going to be on time so im happy


Thank you apple
