I agree with you all I've never been this excited about a product in ages. I've loved coming on here and enjoying the build up.
 
Order is still 'prepared for shipment' and the money has not been taken from my account yet. Is this normal?

It's probably fine. Money hasn't been taken from my account yet along with quite a few others I have noticed. I don't know when you ordered, what you have ordered or when you were promised delivery. But I have found a quick call to Apple very reassuring if you are concerned. They have been very helpful.

Thanks :) Ordered first day, 32 wifi and was 'promised' delivery on 28 May. It's not really a promise though and I understand that.

Then I would be very surprised if you dont get it on Friday. They have been adamant all along anything promised for 28th will be delivered. But a quick call wouldnt harm. It nay reassure you and also sort out in the unlikely event anything has got a bit stuck.
 
As of 10 minutes ago, my iPad been scanned at the Arnhem hub in the Netherlands. Doubt delivery tomorrow is a possibility (for numerous reasons), but I'm staying positive.

Thats interesting. Is your an ipad on its own or is there other stuff on the same order? wifi only or 3g?

Tracking info for mine hasnt updated since HK yet.
 
TNT, 16GB wifi unit coming from Hong Kong. It isn't actually far from Holland to the UK - I'm going to stay positive that it'll be on the van tomorrow.
 
I cant get my delivery reference number to work on the TNT keep getting "not found" :confused:

Have you tried both the reference and consignment numbers? If they don't work, I don't know what you can do. I've never had a problem with the system myself.

What time did yours leave HK? 24th May?

I think Arnhem is a road hub, so it might go by lorry for delivery on the 27th.

However it could also go to Liege and get on a plane tonight, and make it for delivery tomorrow.
 
Yup :confused: Never worked since initial shipping email with tracking details...

I'd give apple or TNT a call tomorrow.

Perhaps it's coming from inside the UK, and won't have been picked up yet.

Does it say 'TNT International Express' or 'TNT UK'?
 
Do i have to worry about Mine still beeing in Hong Kong since the 24th. Is the majority already in Europe?

Looks like my iPad is on the same path as yours!

I would have thought that the ipads could reach us by Thursday. Assuming that by the end of today they are at the local depots. Depends how they get them from Arnhem to here I suppose. Heres hoping for it Thursday!
