There's a package from "AI" set for delivery on March 22 (had mine engraved) in UPS My Choice. Says it is "On the way," even though my order still says "preparing to ship" on Apple.
Mine is still preparing to ship since Monday as well. I assume they already have the inventory within their warehouses in the US.
They really do. I almost wish I had chosen blue instead of space gray.
Ya I'm really happy with the Blue look on the reviews. Went with the white folio, but might pick up a blue one later if the white gets dirty too easily.
Haven’t watched any videos yet but it was either the space grey or the blue one for me. At the end, since I got the sapphire blue iPhone pro, figured I get the blue iPad.
Just checked my UPS app and tried tracking using reference number and the only thing that showed up on both was my case that is coming tomorrow. Still no signs of the iPad though.
Dang, nice. I ordered within the first minute or two of it going live and it's still preparing. I was charged for it on Monday. Did you get an email update from Apple with tracking?Mine has been preparing to ship since Monday, switched to shipped now. But it has been in the country since Tuesday according to tracking and already at the local depot! Tomorrow for sure
Yep, the “your shipment is on its way” email, carrier DHL.
Just hoping it comes by Monday or I won’t have it for a trip I was planning to have it for. Not a huge deal either way. Just an inconvenience.
Just got my notification now. It’s still on track for tomorrow. No engraving on mine. Shipping from Pennsylvania.

Interesting. Not sure where my package is originating from yet. However, still says tomorrow for delivery.
Yup! Mine got shipped. It's coming from PA, I guess Apple planned ahead and had the iPads imported to their warehouse before the lockdown in China happened.Morning. Check your status as mine just changed to shipped and coming tomorrow.
I think they have these products all ready to go by or before the announcement. It's called logistics and warehousing. Apple wants you to have this in your hand, so they can take your money. My iPhone 13 Pro Max shipped from the US when I preordered it as well.
