Haha! Same! I took a chair and put it by my window, now every time something brown passes by, I look up like a cat seeing something move by fast.

I live on a Cul-De-Sac, and sitting in the chair facing the front window. I have the dog firmly planted at the window on watch duty. The dog barks if anything comes in the Cul-De-Sac, annoying the other 364 days of the year, but not today. ;)
 
Posting from my iPad. As I feared, my fingernails will have to go. Anyway, I did *not* get Out For Delivery. Just heads up!
 
DORAVILLE, GA, US 04/03/2010 9:30 A.M. DESTINATION SCAN
04/03/2010 9:20 A.M. ARRIVAL SCAN

I like the rest of you are still waiting. My status on UPS tracking says that my ipad left for its final destination about 45 minutes ago. Well I am almost exactly 45 minutes from Doraville, GA. So hurry up UPS :D:D:D Just kidding, but I am going to freak out when it actually does get here.

I have a 500ft driveway - i'll hear them coming and it will only mean one thing!! LOL!!
 
Posting from my iPad lol. Sorry to hear about all the shipping issues. You guys should head to the apple store and return the one you had delivered! Oh and typing is a DREAM!
 
Any deliveries in Northern Virginia yet? There was a UPS flight from Richmond to Dulles this morning around 7. I think mine was on that flight.

I'm actually upstairs now so I can see another couple hundred yards down the road keeping an eye out of the Big Brown Bringer of Badassness.
 
Yep, totally Apple. Many of us Magic Monday folks would have been picking up in stores if Apple would have been up front with the UPS Saturday BS. I now have an iPad screen protector, case and silicone skin in hand, as well as 20 iPad apps downloaded in my iTunes. iPad will be here Monday. That Saturday the 3rd confirmation on my order was bunk. Oh well, not like any of us paid freight...

Well... you could always go out and buy one at a Best Buy or elsewhere and then just refuse it on Monday. Of course if you're really out in the sticks, maybe that's not an option for you.
 
No delivery for me today.

Just got this update. Looks like mine will definitely be on Monday.:(

It's been 2 hours since Location Scan, how much longer!!!!:confused:

Damn the USPS trucks, they only add to the tension!
 
Most people didn't get the out of delivery message. The tracking information are behind by an hour or two. The departure scan could potentially means it's out for delivery now.

Thanks, any clue if it will say "Delivered" though on the UPS page? I don't want to drive my doorman crazy by calling every 5 minutes....
 
I keep seeing all the unboxing threads and I just can't click on them. But as soon as my ipad arrives, whenever it arrives, I will head into the threads.

Huh, did you call UPS? It looks like you are the one who requested the hold. You're the receiver.

I haven't gotten mine yet, I'm in Herndon right next to the Chantilly hub. UPS service is AWFUL in my area, had I known that Apple won't use FedEx I would've did the instore pickup. I checked with the UPS rep this morning and she said that I'll be getting my iPad today by 7pm. My status shows destination scan at the Chantilly hub. Keeping my fingers crossed....
 
How is the on screen keyboard on the iPad????

Bad enough that I'm posting from my macbook now. :) But I have somewhat long nails. Fortunately I'm not that vain about getting rid of them. I'll save the rest for the first impressions type stuff later--don't want to clutter this thread.

Good luck, all!
 
UPS Truck Spotted

It's across the street but it might be the right truck. I'm not expecting an out for delivery update. It'll be here before Noon. I'm sure of it. Let's just hope that truck spins around!:rolleyes:
