You will probably get it on Thursday or Friday at the latest. Their Delivery Date is Accurate.

Route 1:

EPZ, China
Hong Kong
Taiwan
Anchorage, Alaska
Louisville, KY.
Your Local Facility

Route 2 (The one my IPP took):

EPZ, China
ZhengZhou, China
Incheon, Korea
Anchorage, Alaska
Louisville, KY
Local Facility

It Appears that the Hong Kong Route takes a bit longer.

The Incheon Route takes about 7 Days from when the Order moved to “Shipped”
 
I have terrible News.

My Old iPad has been Diagnosed as irreparable and Permanently Damaged.

I guess I was using it as a laptop, when it wasn’t designed to be one.

It wasn’t designed to have an External Mouse or Trackpad connect, or Mirror to a Display and Render Gigabytes of 4K Video.

Welp. It lived a good life.

iPad Pro 9.7” - “Diamond Pro I”

May 15, 2017 - July 22, 2020.

Succeeded by “Diamond Pro II” on August 7, 2020.
 
I’ve had Terrible experience with Paperlike screen protectors. About a week after A Professional installed one on my 9.7” iPad Pro, bubbles started appearing out of nowhere, it was really scratched up from normal use, and it was peeling at the corners. I also read somewhere that it wears the Tip of your Apple Pencil down Faster than usual. Replacement tips are $20 from Apple.

I never had any of these problems with my Zagg Glass Screen Protector. It was great until it got cracked, so I then removed it.
I use an Elecom. I like it a whole bunch, and it, with 20ish hours of drawing, hasn’t worn down the nib.

Also, those of you who use the Apple 29 Watt or 30 Watt USB-C Adapter to Charge your iPad, it is normal for it to get warm.

DO NOT use ANY Fast Charger other than the one that came in the box and plug it into your MK for Passthrough Charging. It can Only handle the 18W Charger in the box. If you want faster charging, plug it directly into the iPad.

The iPad’s USB-C Port can handle up to 30 Watts of Power.

I use the 29 Watt.

Hmm, I've used the macbook pro usb-c charger since day one, mostly plugged into the MK. Everything still seems ok. The devices will pull whatever they can support. If the MK passthru can only handle 18w, it'll only pull 18w, not the 87w the plug can put out.

Just a data point for people who are lurking on this threadlike I was😂

11’ iPad Pro wifi only with engraving
ordered 7/11/2020
shipped 8/5/2020
delivered 8/14/2040 😉 to west coast in the U.S

Hope shipping times are faster now.

If it takes 20 years for delivery, I guess I really should cancel my order now and do an in store pickup today instead. 😂
 
I got so excited. I received the notification, "There's been a change to the delivery date on your order." I anxiously clicked the link thinking my dream came true and my IPP is coming faster. When I clicked the link, I found my Magic Keyboard delivery date changed to arrive one day earlier. The IPP delivery window is still the same.
I went to my local Best Buy a few hours ago and saw they had the magic keyboard in stock. I was soooo tempted but I stopped myself😅.
 
My delivery day went from past Friday to next Wednesday, to “rescheduled delivery” for 2 days and now it’s Monday (tomorrow) which seems accurate as it’s already in Louisville. Will they knock on the door?

The ups guy just dropped it off. But I signed up for notifications and ran towards the door when I got a “delivered” text
