I see Best Buy has an iPad Pro 2020 12.9 128gb. That would ship by 9/9. I’m getting a student discount and deal on AirPod Pro’s that I have my wife. By purchasing through Apple. So I’m going to wait until they ship/ deliver it but man it is tempting. For me to cancel and get from Best Buy. Knowing that it will come a week or two faster than. What Apple has for estimated delivery of 9/17-9/24.

That's what I did. You can see the small convo on the page before. The only reason I'm ok with giving the AirPods back is that I already have some and was going to sell the ones that came from the education discount. My iPad from best buy should be getting here by Thursday.

I think free Airpod is worth the wait.
 
Yesterday, I received the iPad case and AirPod Pro’s that I ordered with the iPad Pro. Continuing on with the 4 week+ wait for the iPad.:confused:

I did it. My iPad will officially now arrive on thursday
So, everyone, let me tell you about THIS LIL FRAN here. We ordered on the same day and have been commiserating on Reddit together for AGES and sharing things like unboxing videos. My delivery date is September 4-11, hers was later even though we ordered on the same day.

AND NOW this incredibly lucky/smart line jumper is getting hers today (Wed) or tomorrow! Mine has been stuck on processing for 20 days now (I know the average is 22-26). I'm losing my commiserating buddy. ;)

I'm so happy for her...
... and jealous...
... and regretting moving to Europe because I miss BestBuy. 😭

Maybe if I ship it to my family's house in the US and then have them ship it to Germany it'll arrive faster? 😂🤔
 
WHAT?! AIRPODS ARE THE BEST! Still have the Originals I bought on Launch Day, and I still use them Everyday. Especially since this iPad doesn’t have a Headphone jack...

I think they re horrible, kill my ears, not comfortable at all. I switched to the Samsung galaxy buds and man they are 1000x better in my opinion.

@npolly0212 I just talked to Apple and they said that they can cancel the order for me and initiate the return for the airpods. I need to talk to my mom first of course, but I think I'm gonna do it. And order from Best but to receive the iPad this week! I hope she's ok with it. I assume we haven't been charged yet.

Haha I love this! So turns out it won’t get here today (wed) but I do have a tracking number from UPS (waiting for it to work). And it’s still on track to come tomorrow. Everything else including my pencil (bought from Apple) and accessories of amazon should also me here Thursday. Early Christmas for me!

I really hope you guys get some movement in your order progress soon! I definitely find it a bit ridiculous how long you have to wait...but it’s well worth it. I just wanted to get mine earlier to avoid writing so many paper notes for school.
 
I feel like I was way more impatient once I new it was shipped and I had a tracking number for it! It’s currently out for delivery! I’m currently out of town for work so I’ll have to wait until tonight to open it! 😭
That's great! I am very happy you finally received your iPad! and I know exactly how you feel. Mine isn't arriving until the 9th (although I do feel like I might get it sooner than that?) and that of course is on a work day, so when I get the notification that it arrived, it's all I am going to end up thinking about for most of the day XD
 
Believe it or not, this is the first Apple device that I have bought since the iPhone 4 in 2011 haha. I honestly didn't think I was going to ever buy one again. But I did my homework and done my research and I am very happy to start using Clip Studio on my 12.9 IPP.

Aaaaaand of course I am downloading UTM and gonna virtualize some good old linux software on it ;)
