I'm in Ohio, ordered Day 1 right at release, and I am on exception #2.

Anyone think I have a chance for tomorrow? No update since 8:51 AM this morning...

Thanks Xarthan, I just wanted to preorder for instore pickup, but I was ordering mine during a lab in Chemistry class so I didnt exactly have time to browse around and look at my options and shipping was all I saw. Thankfully when my teacher caught me I told him it was just an ipod touch and I was useing the calculator. The best part is tomorrow Im going to be at the Apple store waiting in line anyway with my friend to pick his up.

you should check out that awesome perodic table on the ipad.
 
There is absolutely NO REASON UPS should be slacking in this shipping process.

How many iPads did Apple sell ? Something like 300,000 ?

I watched the intro video for WorldView. That place routes almost 2,000,000 packages A DAY. Without any problems with tracking. These iPads have been coming to that facility for the past FOUR days. That's about 75,000 a day. THREE PERCENT of their packages a day.

Think about that.
 
Just got off the phone with UPS the lady said Korean flight of doom iPads will definitely arrive by the end of the day tomorrow and that the Korea scan was an airport scan and there simply hasn't been an update since it entered the states. I called 800-782-7892 then say agent when you get to the robot
Hope this helps.:)
Now I can sleep
 
Straight from Alaska to Ontario CA

Hey you So Cal Inland Empire folks....flight arriving about 10pm tonight straight from Alaska. Also the one that left KY about 740pm will be landing here in about 20 min!!!! Hope for all of us....GO UPS!!!!:D

I think you're very easily going to be on for tomorrow. Kentucky to Ohio over night? I don't see that being a problem at all.
 
Must be nice mine still says:

GUANGZHOU, CN 04/02/2010 4:10 A.M. DEPARTURE SCAN


But due to timezone differences it said that yesterday (4/1)

mine said that till i looked at it in iship and i get this:
4/2/2010 9:32:00 AM AIR TRANSIT SCAN INCHEON, KR

still not too impressive, I never liked korea, but I certainly don't like it now. I'm going to have to drink a lot of beer just to get some sleep tonight.
 
Good news! Mine was on the same flight as yours to KY and mine just got a location scan seconds ago. Mine must be just a bit further down the line on the conveyor belt! LOL. Have a good night!

Awesome man! Glad we were sorting and UPS21 buddies ;)

Hey...that's where I am.
I would hope that mine is in with yours....it only makes sense right?

Yuuppppppers :)

It should be there around 5 AM. I am actually in Rochester, so mine has to get on a semi from KBUF and head on I90 to Henrietta, where it will sort and then go out for delivery :D
 
Got this reply from Thomas on twitter:

ThomasAtUPS @csparrow I've not rec'd any notice otherwise, so I'm going to call hyperbole on the Flight of Doom and say you're still good to go. 12 minutes ago via TweetDeck in reply to csparrow

The fact that UPS even now refers to it as the "Flight of Doom" is so awesome.
 
Finally an update from Billing Information Received. It just changed to In-Transit and its in KY and should be to me tomorrow!!!!

Now I can sleep

And how long have I been saying this?!

*Facepalm*:apple:

night all...
 
People... GO TO BED! Try to get some sleep! For the VAST majority of you, Santa will be here tomorrow with your iPad!

If you pre-ordered the WiFi-only model when the Apple Store still showed "Delivered by April 3", then it doesn't matter WHAT the UPS tracking says. It can show it in China, Korea, Kentucky or on the freakin' moon.... the VAST majority of them WILL be delivered tomorrow.

(Those of you living in very rural areas without Saturday deliver MIGHT be out of luck until Monday. But I think even some of you will be surprised!)

When I ordered my last MacBook Pro at product introduction, when I went to bed the day before it was supposed to be delivered the tracking information STILL SHOWED IT TO BE IN CHINA! When I got up the next morning, it STILL SHOWED IT TO BE IN CHINA! But just after 10am there was a knock at the door and THERE WAS MY MACBOOK PRO!

Good night, sleep tight, don't let the Microsoft bugs bite!

COME ON!!!

If you're in Kentucky, I think you have very little to worry about. As a matter of fact, I'd put money on the fact that everyone's is already there, regardless of tracking information.
