My fathers shipped from Middletown Pa at 4:00 PM yesterday. We Live in North East Pa and Middletown is about an hour and a half away...however the tracking says "in transit" estimated Delivery is May 2nd (Shipped with 2 Day) and there is no update other than "Left Origin" at 6:30 last night...

Here's to hoping.

I'm in the same boat as you. Mine left Middletown at 6:30 last night just like yours - and no update to the FedEx Website as of yet. Earlier this week, I received a Cinema Display that I ordered through Apple and FedEx was the carrier. The package actually came a few days after FedEx said it was going to be here. Also, the FedEx Website was slow to update the actual progress of where my package was in transit. Infact, until delivery, it didn't update any progress during that day. Maybe there is still hope.

I am curious to see how many Apple customers that were promised delivery on 4/29 and are being "stiffed", are taking delivery from Fedex.

Is it everyone?

Because if it is, then I believe the fault rests on Fedex and not on Apple if the information provided concerning billing/shipping is credible.

In my case Fedex was notified(according to Apple) @6:39 a.m on Wednesday 4/27, but didn't pick up the Tiger order until Thursday 4/28 @12:29 p.m., almost 30 hours later!

This is unacceptable in my opinion, but who dropped the ball?

Anyone here have a similar tale to relate?

To clarify my point I should tell you that I am about 100 miles from Harrisburg, PA (NORTH). Easily can be delivered the same day.

I don't think this is FedEx's fault. My order wasn't transmitted to FedEx until yesterday morning (a day after yours) and it left the same time as yours. It seems like this was a planned schedule from Apple to hold all orders at this location (for some odd reason) until Thursday at 6:30PM.
 
Tiger arrived

To those in the eastern central area (shipping out of Middletown PA) my tiger did arrive like apple said it would. FEDEX was about 6 hrs late today. I was wondering if anyone else in the area (who's shipping looked like it was going to be late) got your copy or did fedex fail to ship as apple said it would?

I received my copy just a few hours ago, and my order status still says Preparing Shipment and estimated ship date on or before today, so don't worry yet - Apple's order status system is just messed up.
