My credit card just got charged and order status shows preparing to ship. Delivery still says April 24 - May 1st, but I’m wondering if it will arrive sooner since some people are now cancelling their orders? 😬
 
Coming to Hawaii with the 4/21-5/1 ship date is now preparing to ship - Did not show up on UPS my choice yet.

Finally Preparing to Ship and Apple Card charged! Still says 4/24-5/1 Arrival which was my original dates. 12.9" located in Central Florida. Ordered within an hour from the time it became available.

Looks like I’m one of the many in the April 24 - May 1 group who just got charged and assigned to Preparing to Ship.

To those who’ve received theirs, is there a consensus on a reasonable timeline from here to delivery? It’s two-day air, right?

What time did you order/get confirmed?
 
My 11” MagicKeyboard arrived today and so far I’m pretty impressed. But I think one thing is not OK, next to the trackpad on the right side I see and feel a few “waves” in the plastic cover, like it would not have been completely glued down. Has anybody else the same problem?
 
to not be left out, my 11” order (24th-1st) has moved to preparing to ship. since other orders shipped from rialto or ontario, my guess and hope is I will receive mine tomorrow. i live in the area near rialto/ontario in so cal.

12.9”, Connecticut, got the confirmation email at 11:19 a.m. eastern on April 15. I think I just missed the first wave, the estimated delivery date changed while I was checking out.

I'll probably see movement either later today or sometime tomorrow then given my timeframe
 
Nice. My label printed the same time as yours, but it didn’t ship until 4/19 at 10:19pm. Maybe that mean’s I’ll get it tomorrow instead of Wednesday. Did you get the 11” or 12.9”?
11 inch 2018. And it’s here! It’s heavy, works great on my desk and lap and the keyboard feels awesome* note i liked the feel of the keyboard folio too.

I had ordered with the 24th-1st delivery time, well, I literally just saw the charge on my card and it’s now preparing to ship! 11” will soon be on its way!
Mine too! I ordered the 11 around 415 pm ET on Wednesday.... it just changed to PTS :)

I'd say for you if it's preparing to ship you'll probably be looking at either tomorrow or Wednesday. If you have UPS My Choice you should see a tracking number appear
If they are in the US already tomorrow or Wednesday....I tried to track by reference and nothing is showing up. I also have UPS My Choice and it's not showing up there either.....yet. I hope it will update later today....I think PTS means they have charged your card and my guess would be the next step is printing the label and I think at that point it will show up in the app.

In Lewis Center, OH here: I'm one of the April 24-May 1 folks (11" model). Card was recently charged and status changed to Preparing to Ship.
 
If you just moved to preparing to ship today (Monday), it would be at least Wednesday. And that's liberal. Standard shipping to the US is two days and often, stuff sits in PTS for a day or so. As its an accessory, and not an iPhone/iPad, it might ship same day, but it might not.
