WTF!!!!!
UPS makes mine be in future
It's strange, but it actually is 4/1 in CN already. I just noticed it too. What's stranger is my package is already in KY. Stuck there, but there nonetheless.
Mine's been in Kentucky all day. Wonder if it is going to stay there until Friday or head up to somewhere in New England where it will be close enough to almost touch it, but sadly not in my hands.
WTF!!!!!

No, it's a day ahead...think timezones. It's already April 1st there in China....
Same here.
WTF!!!!!

Chill out, mine's the same.
It should update soon - mine took almost 14 hours to update on the UPS site - they are really bogged down right now,
WTF!!!!!
UPS makes mine be in the future (04/01/2010 3:43 PM Billing Info received)
Haha, actually, the reason for that is because Hong Kong is ahead of us in time - if it is 3:03 AM EST - it is 3:03 PM in Hong Kong On the FOLLOWING day
However I think they mean AM in that time scan, as it would make sense meaning that the update was at 3 PM EST today, making it 3 AM there tomorrow... i love time zones
And also, the billing info seems to have been sent after these packages - my package was scanned at 8 AM on the 30th in Hong Kong, and no update yet... But my billing info came afterwords.
this is getting confusing. mine was in Kentucky, now it's scanned back at CZ on April 1st due to the time zone thing. i think the whole world should be calibrated to EST, or at least Cupertino time. in the meantime i just ordered a new Vaja case, but what do i do with the thing until that arrives in 10 years???
yeah, I live in S. Korea (now it also is 4/01 5:30 AM) but UPS shows "Billing Info received at 3:43 PM"
Hey can you copy your status here? I can probably decipher it for you
keep in mind that yesterday or 2 days ago it had Lexington, KY and the "EXCEPTION" notice.

Haha fair enough. I was just wondering because it is interesting to see where they are, and what the times were compared to others...
But trust me if it is in KY it will DEFINITELY be there on time.
It is people like me whose packages still show in Shenzhen that feel like they should worry (I am not because I understand the UPS system and the way this launch seems to be working). but for others it isn't so simple xD
No I am definitely in your boat. It showed KY and then it disappeared after the "EXCEPTION" came off. UPS keeps subtracting info from the window. I have no clue what's going on. Regardless, you, me, and everyone else who ordered this Day 1 or right at the beginning better have that package on time.
One of my friends lives in Portland, OR. So, I will get a 32gb iPad by his help.
Yea, actually - that "disappearance" was probably something about brokerage and hold things right? huge long messages? if so those were only messages about the shipment being held back for customs clearance.
And I ordered on day #2 in the AM so we will see how it goes
Mine is really weird...
Mine was shipped on Monday morning with the origin scan and billing info received and all i have had since is the exceptions and the clearance note...Now my billing info was updated to 4/1/2010 at 4:02 PM but I already had the billing info...what is this?
It hasn't gone anywhere for 2 days...i don't understand why

no idea... it may be moving and you just can't see it.
Apparently as time goes forward UPS is getting more stupid with the updates on these packages. And it seems that the billing info times aren't necessarily when they actualy received the info, but rather when the system got the notification.
ALSO - the billing info times seem to NOT be in the correct time format -- they appear to be in Pm instead of AM, which makes sense because these people are seeing the updates on 4/1 (the date in china) and right around the correct times in the US - so this must mean they skewed the time zones or something.
