They might not yet if they ship overnight express in the USA. I don’t recall the shipping service level Apple uses if the preorder originates in the USA.
For me I have ordered always at launch and it has either been overnight or second day I'm counting on second day

My shipping shows Express so I'm thinking that's probably second day Express but I could be wrong
 
Dates slipped last night to mid to late October - when I’m away. Great.

I suppose I should have just ordered at the weekend, as long as the charge hit the card tomorrow (new statement period so full 56 days interest free to pay) I could work with that.

Almost wanting to find that I prefer pink (would have ordered purple) to justify my not robbing savings and ordering earlier.
Oh well... I try not to get too excited about these things.

I'll be doing much the same thing, just on a newer, slightly more modern device.

The M1 iPad Pro with 16GB of RAM is what I was very excited over. Files and large copy seem much improved. The next step will be the apps. I think with the M1 we should see better apps which is also exciting.
 
Anyone fretting about the order status/shipping times/etc

These will be very easy to source at retail stores (not just Apple) in short order.

Previous experience has shown me that it's very very often easier and less expensive to buy at the likes of Costco, Target, Staples, Best Buy, Walmart, Sams Club, etc --- or even just Apple retail stores which will for sure have stock

The space grey's went fast. I ordered mine the same day, 256gb cellular, but it's not coming until 10/6-10/13. Oh well, gives me time to see if I want the Surface Go over this.

Anyone know when the Apple stores will start having these on display to at least look at in person?
 
Mine is still showing the 24th, but it's still in preparing to ship status. Hoping Friday's date still sticks!

Nah, they'll get here on the 24th just like the phones.

I don’t understand you’re reply in the context of what I said.

What I’m trying to say is don’t fret about shipping times slipping…
Just go get one at any of the many retail stores

supply will not be constrained
 
My order is still preparing to ship however my express shipping has now turned to next day shipping so I guess they're going to ship them on Thursday
 
I hope I can set it to have bigger icons than that. Seems like more wasted screen on the sides than on the 5.
