11” Space Grey Pro 128GB WiFi ordered on 7/24 with a delivery date of 8/20 now in Alaska. My initial delivery window was 8-21-8/28 when I placed the order.
How exciting! I wish mine was in Alaska. When did yours move to “preparing for shipment” or “shipped”?

I notice all of you ordered directly from Apple. I ordered mine from AT&T yesterday. The AT&T website says estimated delivery is between Aug. 18th(tomorrow) and Aug. 20th. I got the 12.9 inch WiFi+cellular in silver. Does this seem right? It hasn’t shipped yet but I notice most of you have been waiting a month or more. Are they shipping quicker via AT&T or is the estimated delivery just not accurate? Anyone here order from AT&T instead of Apple? I don’t want to wait alone lol.
I was really wanting to order from Apple because of student deal - ipad was 100 less for one I wanted and you got free airpods, and engraved free. But I didnt want to wait till middle of september when I was ready to order last week.

I went ahead on (I believe it was friday) and ordered the Ipad from Best Buy and will have it today or tomorrow.
 
Still stuck in Chek Lap Kok and my delivery date has now changed from Thursday 8/20 to Friday 8/21. 😢 I suppose it could be worse, but my patience is wearing thin with each passing day

@Namara @sirgib is it Normal for the Magic Keyboard to Wobble when I tap on the Screen? It wobbles a bit, about Half a centimeter in Each Direction. Also when it wobbles it makes a weird noise. here is a video depicting that.
I am tapping on the screen as you normally would while using the iPad.
It sounds like I’m hitting the iPad really hard lol. I guess those Mics really do work.

 
Mine has left EPZ, China. Will see whether it ends up in Hong Kong or ZhengZhou next, but I'm guessing the former based on the route the most recent shipments here are taking.

Is your iPad still in Alaska? I ordered the same model on 07/23 and it arrived in Alaska at 2:26pm yesterday but there has been no movement since then.

Mine left EPZ yesterday and is now in ZhengZhou...hoping against all hopes that it skips the rest of its China/Taiwan adventure and just moves on over to Alaska. lol.

Yes, mine does the same. With the MK I mostly use the trackpad or pencil, I rarely touch the screen.

Totally off topic, but meh, here's my current set up with the IPP, MBP (15"), and PC. I'm studying Swift iOS development on Udemy. MBP has xcode, iPP for notes, PC for playing the course videos.

The iPP lsn't far off the size of the MBP 15" 😃 (And yes, I know my desk is a mess)

So I finally decided to pull the trigger and order a new IPP 11inch wifi-cellular, I looked on the Apple Store website and like others have reported it was 3 to 4 weeks for processing and delivery. BandH said they had a few in stock that could be delivered by next Monday or Tuesday and they were $5 off. I looked at BestBuy, and they had 2 listed available for a Saturday in-store pickup, or delivery sometime next week. I purchased the IPP through BestBuy and opted for the Saturday store pick up, so hopefully everything remains on schedule.

Ok, here is a short update. Best Buy has been lagging in updates and communication with my order. On Saturday, August 15, when my order was estimated to originally be ready, I finally got an email in the afternoon that there is a delay. The next estimated pick up date was set for Tuesday, August 18. That has come and gone, and now Best Buy is saying August 22. If they cannot fulfill the order by then, they will cancel and refund.
