Just received tracking number! All set to be delivered tomorrow. Though, I wish they didn’t use UPS. Our UPS guy hits our house at the very end of his day. And he lolligags! I watch him during the day with their app. Dude takes BREAKS. Long breaks. Grrrr ? hahahaahha

Yeah, that happened to me once when I was waiting for a special package. I kept tracking him the whole time and he got right down from my street and then left! Tracked him a ways away and he was there for a looong time! I kept wondering he wasn't there for an "afternoon delight" type thing! ;) ;)

my dark cherry iPad mini smart folio went from "Arrives Sept 24" to "Arrives Soon". I got a tracking # but it's not yet active in the system. I also got a tracking # for the iPad mini 6 which is not active either, but at least apple.com says "Arriving Sept 24".

Mine switched to shipping this morning. Being delivered to NYC from Carlisle, PA which is an Apple distribution center (I've received other items from the same address and also returned IUP iPhones to the same address). These units were manufactured and delivered to the states from China prior to release.
Same here! Shipping to NYC from PA. Picking up the dark cherry smart folio tomorrow at the SoHo store. Just got the notice it’s in transit!

Would be great if everyone posting status also included their location.
Location, Location, Location... matters. For instance, I can order an M1 MacBook Pro (by 3pm local time, standard config) and it will be delivered Today.
This leads me to believe my iPad Mi6 won't be arriving via Sh**t Color (UPS). Yay!

"iPad Mi6" - You heard that here first ;)

OC, CA ‘64 Starlight WiFi w/white smart folio. Ordered right away, delivery 24th. UPS.

My favorite hobbies include candle-making and long walks along the beach. My favorite color is blue, and my dream date would be a weekend B&B in Santa Barbara.

Finally! It just popped up on UPS MyChoice! Shipping label created in Lebanon, TN, a 256GB Starlite WiFi Mini and a 256GB Graphite Cellular Mini headed to Alabama.

Incidentally the 64GB regular iPad 9th Gen we bought for our son shipped from Louisville, KY while the Minis are shipping from Lebanon, TN. No shipping notifications for the Minis and still shows as Preparing to Ship.

As soon as I posted ^^this^^ I received the shipment notice. Hilarious, Sh**t Color will deliver via next day air service, tomorrow.
Ontario, CA -> Puget Sound area.
At least the drivers in my area are nice. Sometimes they even have a 2nd "runner" gal aboard. Tomorrow will be sunny and warm, at least warm enough for ? running shorts :)
(I like to look at the bright/peachy side of things).

FWIW, My order also included a new iPad Cellular 256GB - Silver (I'm giving as a gift).
Edit: Both iPads have the same tracking number.

My iPhone is showing up on UPS My Choice as shipped, but the iPad mini is showing as “ready for UPS” (shipping from Tennessee) with a “pending delivery date.”
Always Tennessee or Kentucky

Starlight is supposedly silver with a tint of yellow/gold. Some people have described the color as champagne but others have said the tint is more subtle than champagne. iJustine said she liked the color very much.
Do you know the color that the old people usually drive and you get stuck behind it that's the color LOL
