Put your tracking # in here:

You're on the Flight of Doom. Just read back a few pages.

There's still a chance it'll all be fine.

Oooof.....what a bummer....

That site DID have an update that my UPS tracking does not have. And...oh look....its Korea!

Wow I'm going to be bummed out if post 2630 is accurate and mine won't arrive until Monday. I preordered within 5 mins of it going on sale and had it shipped because I knew my area had Saturday delivery.

What are the chances I can get one at a store tomorrow? If I'm definitely not getting it I will buy one and return the one on Monday. A friend of mine has one reserved at the Apple Store and won't be picking it up so if need be, I could probably ask him if I could pick that up....uggh, what the F.... :(
 
What's the flight number if you don't mind...? :)

I don't have it yet... that is based off of past history. I wouldn't give you that link only because it may be unreliable as week to week they can operate under different flight numbers :(
I plan on going to bed early, then waking up in a cold sweet at 2:30am, see my package still hasn't update and frantically come on here and post every few seconds questions to TechDude

Haha oh noes... I wake up in the AM with like 33 PMs :D
 
Counting my lucky charms

Well, I see that my iPad arrived here in Louisville at 5:58pm. It's nice to live in the same city where the UPS hub is located! Lucky me. BTW, I would suggest to you "all" to print out and sign that "pre-sign" form even if you are going to be at home. Why? Because, as it happened to me before, I'd be sitting on the throne at the same time the UPS guy arrives. They come and go veeeeeeeery quickly! You'll thank me later.
 
I will feel SOOO much better when I actually see it move from KY to my local UPS center. I've been in KY for several days. I don't want my iPad getting comfortable up there and decide to leave me for someone else....

Haha I hear ya ;)

Congrats!!!

Yeah BestBuy does totally suck. I worked there, hated it. I was leading in sales but all they did was try to find reasons to fire me (which they couldn't) because I was a minor at the time and the Manager didn't even know it (and they need a nonminor in the home theater section). Ended up quitting after several months. That was a great decision.

Yea. Well my BestBuy is actually really good in terms of employee treatment, I had a few old friends that worked there... sadly they are all out of the country on sabbatical or something and I can't ask to use them as references :(

Oooof.....what a bummer....

TRUST ME - IT IS HERE! That poster was trying to get a rise out of us and catch us in the moment.

Happened to me when they talked about a UPS plane that crashed a few days ago... (didnt affect us though).

Never the less, trust me - It will be there! It will probably update when it gets to your regional sort facility, or when it departs KY
 
korean flight

mine was on the korean flight thing
and the status just changed to
"failed customs clearance"






Just kidding don't jump
 
This is really crappy. I ordered mine on the 25th and my status is below. Im really hoping it makes it here on time, but I'm not gonna complain. Mine needs to make its way to Dayton, OH.

I cant believe some of the first people to order still show in China. I would be furious.

Out of curiosity TechDude, when you say local, you are referring to the last place the package stops before delivery?

I suggest the same. I just went around my house and put a pre-sign slip on every single door. Even though I plan to wake up at 7 and basically sit within sight of my driveway, I don't want to take any chances.
 
Ugh i'm near ft myers Fl and still no info, the only flight i find is a 5:15am flight. Anymore info techdude? ipad in KY as of last status.

Oh TechDude the UPS guru that I would have hired at BB - (except i'm a chick ;)) This was an overnight from Amazon.

Does this flight from KY to MCO happen on the weekends? If so i can stop stressing and go to bed....

I'm pretty sure you will be ok. You are pretty much on same shipping timeline as I am.
 
This. I also would encourage people to do this.

I taped mine up before we went out to dinner tonight, so apparently I still have some optimism left. ;)

On that note...I really think I'm gonna call it and go to bed. Granted, I'll be leaving Delivery Status running on my Mac with push notification to my phone (yes, lurkers, go ahead and judge me, you know you love every minute of it), just in case. And in the absolute worst case scenario, I need to be fresh in the morning for my Best Buy Walk of Shame.

Y'all try not to break TechDude again.

I'm in the Ft Myers area too, but I'm on the KFOD.. I'm not going to stress (much) unless it doesn't arrive tomorrow.
 
From Wikipedia... "Incheon, officially the Incheon Metropolitan City, is South Korea's third largest metropolis, after Seoul and Busan. As the largest seaport on the west coast and home to the country's largest airport, Incheon International Airport, Incheon is South Korea's most important transport hub."

We should edit the entry after all this is said and done to mention the "Korean Flight of Doom of 2010"
