How long does it take to get an iPad once it is "Prepared for Shipment"?

[Burke9077]

I'm sure that all of you can relate to my angst today. Yesterday, I received my iPad keyboard, and the same day, my iPad was moved from "Not yet shipped" to "Prepared for Shipment". It has an ETA of May 12 - 18th. I just wondered if you folks could give me a better ETA than that....

Once again, sorry to sound pathetic, but I think you might be able to relate.

Here is the image of my recent orders, if that helps at all.

My 64GB wifi + 3g took about 24 hours to change from "Prepared for Shipment", to "Shipped".

And Apple is spot-on, it shipped on the night of the 7th business day.

My order date was May 2nd around 9 a.m.

Mine is scheduled to arrive by fed-ex by 10:30 a.m. on May 13, my delivers-by date was "May-11 to May-15"

I hope that I helps
