Preparing for shipment for me, even though I ordered a min after the newsroom post appeared.

I was annoyed this morning when my order went from processing back to order placed, yet stated I can no longer modify my order, now it’s preparing. Hasn’t shipped yet.

I have a April 27-29 delivery. MOTHAH F

I posted this in another forum yesterday, the keyboard is also a battery, hence the price. The USB C charges the keyboard which powers the backlight in the keyboard so the iPad battery is not affected, and also doubles up as an external battery for the iPad, when plugged in it also passes power through the 3 pin connector to charge the iPad. Just look at the thickness compared to the iPad itself even taking in to consideration of key travel. This will also help with the weight for stability.
How do you know it’s a battery? Sounds like your making stooffff up, I feel like Apple would’ve mentioned this in their PR

I commented about the case which also regarded the hinge. That hinge is bigger so the iPad can swing open without bottoming out on the keyboard case.

I tried to open my iPad like they did with Magic Keyboard videos using a Smart Keyboard Folio, and my iPad hits the keyboard because the iPad is too low.

you can see in the official video that the bigger hinge prevents it from touching the bottom case.

Did anyone in Canada get a window earlier than April 24 to May 1? I ordered it like 5 minutes after orders opened up and got an April 24 to May 1 window, still processing.

Mine is at April 27 to April 29. Even though I ordered immediately after announcement, did not take more than 2 mins. Seems like no one in Canada got earlier, but mine is preparing shipment like everyone else with an earlier delivery date. Apple has delivered things earlier than they said before with me.

Nope. I ordered within 30 mins. I have the same window.

Anybody in LA order yesterday 4/16?
If so, would you mind sharing what ETA you have for delivery? My office ordered for me so no idea what’s the status or potential delivery window. Thanks
 
Via UPS - tracking number works
Now in Nurnberg (Germany), coming from Czechia
Arriving Monday 4/20
Czech Republic has the main store in Europe covering several countries.
I pray I also get package Monday, usually they deliver pretty fast.
Although I did not receive any tracking information, the money was widthdrawn, and I am sure it is already shipped.

I remember previous orders from Apple had same behavior. I never got tracking info and I woke up with the delivery guy at the front door.
