After 27 days, my status finally switched from processing to preparing for shipment this morning. And just now, I was notified my shipment is on its way and expected on Thursday. I’m pretty happy considering my original window was 9/28 - 10/05. That light at the end of the tunnel got bright in a hurry!
Nice! My delivery window is 9/30-10/7. Hopefully I get the same shipment notification soon, too!

Nah, you're no dummy. We just needed to be educated. By the way, since your avatar is Glinda, could you grant some shipping wishes here? Tap your heels three times, etc. etc.?
I would, but the @*#! Munchkins broke my wand, the Yellow Brick Road is closed for construction, and the Ruby slippers are at the cobbler shop getting re-soled! 🤪
 
This is for my college students out there, but after getting impatient i made the risky decision of cancelling my iPad Pro 11 SG 128 order from Apple and ordered it from my college book store and it was at my door in less than 48 hours with my airpods pro in the box. Hopefully that freed up an iPad for at least one of you lol! Now for my refurbished apple pencil 2 to come in ...

I cancelled an order from Apple(7th Generation) and the same day ordered an 8th Generation iPad. Had mine in about 4-5 days(included a weekend) all the way from China

I ordered mine on the 15th at the same time that I ordered my wife's 2020 8th Gen iPad - both had horrible windows for delivery, so I cancelled both. On Thurs the 17th I ordered the Pro from Amazon (yes I know the return policy etc.) it was delivered Fri. morn (the 18th), while I was waiting in the queue for curbside P/U at the Apple Store to grab the new 8th Gen for my wife. BB had the longest fulfillment window of any of the choices. Happy times!
