I'm not sure what the difference is. During checkout I just chose standard free shipping, so I dunno why my tracking says that. Ouch, sorry to hear about the requirement of someone over 21 to sign. Being 18 myself, I can see how that might really suck. As for the WW games, do you guys have one starting soon? I really enjoyed the one I took part in. I would like to play again.

I chose free shipping, too. :confused:

There's still a WW game going on, so I'm not sure when the next will start.
 
I got my shipping confirmation email (they sent it to me twice actually, which was weird since I only got one iPad) at 5 AM on Friday, and my FedEx number still isn't working. Here's hoping I get an update on Monday!

Mine took about 24 hours to actually work. A lot of times when it says shipped, Apple has just purchased the label, but Fedex doesn't have the package yet.
 
I was actually just wondering about this myself. I'm 19, I paid for the iPad and I'm having it shipped to my apartment, both in my name. If the Fedex guy does not want to hand over the goods.. were going to have some issues!

Woah woah, wait what? I need to be over 21 to sign for it? Why? In the States you're legally an adult at 18...as far as I'm concerned, the only age-limit of 21 was drinking.

I'm 19 but I ordered this with a card in my name with an Apple account in my name to a residence in my name...lol. I'm with hardcoremuffin...I can show my drivers license and the card I used to pay with my name on it, hell, I'll log into my Apple account for the Fedex/UPS guy. But if I need someone of 21 to sign for it...smh. I will take this Fedex/UPS guy all around my neighborhood to find a 21+ year old to sign for this.
 
Ordered white 32GB wifi on the 7th around 2pm pst. Shipped/picked up today by FedEx at 7 pm pst for delivery on 3/16. Picked up at Ontario, CA and delivering to San Diego, CA. :)

i have never seen a fedex guy ask for ID.

I've never been carded by a freakin delivery person. I'm sure you're fine, especially since you're 19. If you were 5 years old, it'd be another story.

Well as long as I get it on the 16th (or a day before if I'm lucky) then I won't really care.
Hm, well if you could DM me when a new game is starting then that would be great.

I'm not really thinking this will be an issue. Last year when I bought my iPad 2, I signed off for it without any problems. Same story for my MBP. I don't think they're actually gonna check unless you really obviously look really young.
 
I purchased an iPad 3 to my place, I provided the right address but the wrong zipcode and city name, what can i do?

(they emailed me they shipped today via fedex, arrive on 3/16.)
 
Apple Order Status Down ! All Orders Gonna Be Updated ON THE NEXT 30 MINUTES

Hey Guys !

Sounds Cool ! All Apple Delayed Order Gonna Be Updated in The Next 30 Minutes :):)

I see that too. When I went to check my status I got this also. But if your time is my time then it's nearly 30 minutes and still showing this message. Maybe we will see them updating something that is for sure by morning.

you can check your order status right now , but still remaining around 10 min to allow apple to update order status .
 
I'm still stuck on preparing for shipment. It's been 48 hours now. I'm not worried, I just want a tracking number to join in on the fun, but since I'm in California, it probably won't ship until late next week.
Same...the "preparing for shipment" stage for more than 48 hours now...I think lol. But I'm also in California (Orange County), so I can be patient. I would think that ordering at 1:20pm on keynote day would guarantee me an iPad by release day. You never know, but chances are slim!

California here also, showing preparing for shipment. Seems from the post, that ours won't be shipped until this week.

Haha I hope so I got the same error.

Well it seems to be back up now, but still shows Processing . . . for me. :(
I ordered mine: Mar 7 11:55PM day of the launch. iPad 64GB Wi-Fi+4G LTE White At&t.
Says: Ships by Mar 19 still.
 
Still Processing my order.... They took the money already. Shipped and recieved my smart cover already. But still no movement on my 64gb AT&T White iPad. :mad:

If they are already in the USA (the iPads I mean) then they will not ship until the 15th for delivery on the next day. Rumor had it that some of the iPads were shipped to the USA earlier for early orders. So I would not worry.
