I'm in the same boat. Ordered here in Switzerland late the day of the announcement. Received 25 to 27 as delivery time but it has been "processing" since de first day.
All the accessories got here the next day.

When I ordered here in the US it went to Preparing for Shipment almost immediately. That surprised me.
 
Mine has been chillin in Chengdu for two days. I hate when Apple makes carriers hold packages before launch.

Same, also EU. Perhaps they're first shipped from China to an EU warehouse/distro center, which we don't see, and then they're sent 1-2 days before with local carriers.

I’ve heard this as well. They go to one place in Europe and then are distributed. (Also you know Switzerland aren’t in the EU?)
 
My 12.9 iPad Pro has gone through departure scan at Chengdu, China. It looks as if it’s on its way. Scheduled delivery is 3/25/2020.

I placed my order (11” 128gb) thursday 19th around 14:00 (UK), the accessories are already delivered, but the ipad is still processing with delivery dates 26-30 march, they didn’t take the money for the ipad yet

Exactly the same model. Only ordered around 55m later. Had the same time frame, I have the email with those dates, but now is 6-15 April.
Can’t understand this discrepancy in dates this time.
I simulated a new order and there are better dates for new orders...

Yeah, I meant that part of the world :)

Anyway, let's hope they all arrive somewhere this week! Can't wait.

Agree. The new Folio keyboard that was delivered to me on Friday came from Netherlands. iPP 11" still shows Processing with delivery between 25-27th March. My card was not charged yet.

Apple still says “Preparing for Shipment”. UPS says differently:
