The keyboard is only available in US English layout - is that what you mean?ordered all in UK language
Yes mine has just done the same thing. So no cancellation is now possible. It means if you really really wanted one today if they are available, you would have to buy another one, and then return the first one as per your distance selling regulations.
I couldn't buy the smart keyboard for some reason so got the Logitech one instead since it's backlit
Ordered my Space Grey 128GB model! And in a separate order the pencil since it seems to be a bit delayed..

I've ordered the Apple one but the Logitech one looks good ... Would be interested to know if there's a weight or bulk difference in them. Logitech one is less money and available straight away (and backlit!!)
Could you buy a pencil in store, then when the other one arrives, return that in store? I'm hoping to just do that.
When you get it, post pictures will ya? I am still on the fence about returning it and just getting the Apple one. Might have to make a trip to an Apple Store and see.
Btw delivery date for mine is the 13th! Yay
The Logitech version provides a total case solution for the iPad Pro, covering both front and back completely. But it may not be that comfortable to hold folded back on itself in handheld uses. The Apple keyboard solution does not provide total coverage to the iPad Pro leaving, from what I can see, half of the back uncovered and nothing of the sides.
I find it infuriating I can order the iPad Pro for a delivery of this Friday (2 days) yet I have to wait until 19-26 Nov.
You would have thought Apple would have got this right.

From the pictures, the Logitech keyboard does look better than the Apple one if you're going to be doing a lot of typing and looking for a case solution. I considered ordering it over the Apple keyboard until I realised I'm basically after a stand/front cover with added functionality, which is what the Apple Smart keyboard is.
I always use iPads naked and predominantly minus the Smart Cover so the Apple one suits me better personally but can definitely see the attraction of the Logitech one.
Have the Apple keyboard on a separate order so may see if I can snag one at a store before the option to cancel disappears.

thereSo it's just gone 1am in the UK and I see no way to preorder yet. Will it be in the morning? Apple has kept really quiet on this release time for the product. I just wanna buy it!!!
Also if you do buy it, tell me about it
do we know more details about this keyboard? can't find anything relevant...
what material is it?
is it a hard plastic back cover?
This is crazy...what are Apple doing? Either they have a release date or they don't. So we all jump to web order this morning and then have to wait in for a delivery when we could just have walked into a store and had one already. And on top of that my order is now preparing for dispatch so I can't cancel.
In another thread, a UK person has already got an iPad Pro AND pencil from an Apple Store this morning, so Brighton is wrong, or at least it isn't the case with London stores.
There is a small chance, that deliveries by courier will be made tomorrow. Normally for the UK an order does not go into "Preparing for dispatch" unless it is the day of shipment. If Apple are happy for people to have their iPads from today, then they will probably allow couriers to deliver tomorrow.
Just got off the phone with Meadowhall. They have only just learned you can now buy online.
They have no idea when stock is coming in, could be the end of the week but again the iPencil won't be available for another two weeks.
You've screwed it for me Apple. I'm not ordering a tablet to sit around for two weeks whilst I wait for the iPencil.
That's my creativity ve design kicking into frustrated mode.
