Oh, they did but I recieved two of them; one saying to reply or call Apple by 4PM central time and the other one said to do that by 6PM central time. By the time I read them it was 30 minutes too late. And that's when I called to see if they could still give me a non-personalized one.

----------



It was around 11:30PM EST. Yeah, right before they sold out!

I bought mine at 7:55EST that evening. Hang in there bro, fingers crossed.
 
Mine's in Ontario not in transit, but I don't expect it to be in transit until Friday morning when it's loaded on the truck, because it has nowhere else to go! Ontario is usually the last destination before it comes to my house!
 
Couple of hours ago, my delivery was Friday by 3. Now?

Scheduled Delivery:
Friday, 03/16/2012, By End of Day
Last Location:
Arrived - Louisville, KY, United States, Sunday, 03/11/2012

Hmmm... but my ATV3 will be here early. YOIKS!

I received those emails too. The 4pm one was loaded will spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. The 6pm one was an apology for the 4pm one, and with the errors corrected. :D

Now I have the personalized iPad with a delivery date of 20th and a replacement non-personalized one for a 16th delivery (but says 6th Apr on the store page). Fingers crossed. Hope to receive something on the 16th.
 
Mine has been "in transit" since the 10th or so, but due to the "delivery exception" it won't actually go anywhere till tomorrow probably. At least that's the way it's been with all of us who have iPads sitting in Nashville.
 
Long story short, I just got off the phone with customer service for the 2nd time tonight because my iPad has been delayed 4 days. I decided to take a different approach this time and see if they could still get me a non-personalized one and stick to their obligation of getting me the new iPad on March 16th like my order confirmation says, and also how they were going to compensate for letting me take a loss that they're responsible for. I was firm, but fair. ;)

After my little 'rant' she said "there's nothing I can do to get you an iPad by the 16th, I'm sorry. The most I can do is give you a smart cover at no charge." I was not going to deny that offer (I was denied the first time I called and asked for a free smart cover). So I told her I wanted a Navy Leather Smart cover.

Now, I did pre-order two of the new iPads (The second one is on time and should be here on Friday but it is not for me, I bought it for my father.) so she asked me, "Would you like a second smart cover to go with the other iPad?" Hell yeah! Of course! Black leather was the next color.

So overall, I still have to wait until Tuesday to get my personalized new iPad that I ordered on the 8th, but hey I get 2 free leather smart covers saving me $140 so I guess it's worth it. :)
 
Anyone else showing delivery tomorrow (Thursday)? I was in "prepared for shipping" status until late this afternoon but now am shown scheduled deliver tomorrow by Thursday. Probably won't actually come until Friday - and anyway I am out of town tomorrow (ironically in Nashville with thousands of iPads) so it doesn't really make much difference but was curious if anyone else is seeing this.

By chance did you order something else? It's showing as 2 lbs, iPads should be showing as 3 lbs?
 
Mine finally changed from Picked Up to In Transit at 7:30. Also coming from Harrisburg, PA going to Chesapeake.

mine is coming with FEDEX not with UPS
but why mine is
Weight 3.0 lbs/1.4 kg
and your only 2.0 lbs ?

I bought the 64GB BLK wifi + 4G LTE AT&T only
 
Finally shipped!

Glad to be out of the processing and preparing stages. The UPS tracking shows the item is currently in China and delivery date is 16th. :eek:

Interestingly its the engraved one, that Apple told me has been delayed, that is shipping. Not the replacement, which Apple offered instead. Hmm.

Are you absolutely sure that that isn't an Apple TV order? The weight of those is 2 pounds and they do go out tomorrow.
