Mine was supposed to get here today, but got rescheduled for tommorrow - no worries it’s going to be well worth the wait from all the reviews I’ve watched/read so far :)

Mine was, according to FedEx this morning, "On truck for delivery", but was a no-show. FedEx's tracking page reads "Pending." Sigh.... :mad:

EDIT: Of course not long after posting this, a little birdie told me to check the front porch; and there it was! The video reviews don't do it justice. It's the best Apple keyboard I've ever typed on.

Best Buy coming through for me! Funny enough I almost kicked myself when Apple showed up in MyChoice. I checked my email and it was my 11 Pro Max coming back from repair. Oh well. Apple will get it sorted out eventually.

I’ll never understand why people are so dedicated to buying directly from Apple.

I ordered from Best Buy during lunch (free next day shipping) and I just got my tracking number for delivery tomorrow. Seems a lot less trouble than dealing with Apple.

For my perspective, when Apple launches a product you usually assume they will have the most stock allocated to their retail outlets. Of course things obviously ended up differently this time.
 
Received my 11" today. Honestly, my first thought was that the keyboard feels kind of cramped, more noticeable than the Smart Keyboard. I'm geting used to it, but I still notice this at times. I'm guessing it's because the typing experience now feels so much more closer to a MacBook, that the smaller layout on this is more noticeable (narrower keys on the left and right sides compared to the MacBook keyboards) – kind of a keyboard uncanny valley. Otherwise, this thing is awesome! Very nice for recliner computing. I was able to do some python coding (Pyto app) on my lap in the living room today while kids played. I've been adapting more of my work to iPad and might upgrade to the 12.9" next at some point because the Magic Keyboard finally comfortably enables me using the iPad as the ultra-portable computer I've wanted it to be. I'll be even more likely to go larger if there continues to be more significant iPadOS advancements. I bet the extra room on the 12.9" feels pretty nice. Hope others get theirs soon … :)

I ordered around 5ish on the 15th and mine arrives tomorrow via UPS. I was tempted to give up and go with BestBuy, but I didn't want to be one of those people ordering two. That just makes others wait longer.

I ordered 3:38 on the 15th from Apple and has been stuck in PTS since Monday. Gave up and ordered from BB last night, it will be here tomorrow.

I would have just stayed the course if I had any kind of information... But since I didn’t even have a label printed and I was stuck on PTS I ordered one from Best Buy this morning at 11:30am or so and it will be here tomorrow between 10:30 and 1:50... and my 11 Pro Max returns tomorrow as well via UPS so it should be a good day! For informational purposes, I ordered 4/15 at 4pm and went to PTS Monday and am still stuck there.
 
Hey guys! I just started this thread regarding a potential issue I may have noticed with my iPad today. I'm hoping others experience this as well and I don't have anything to worry about. Sorry for posting it here but I figured since we are all iPad Pro owners, it may be good to check.

I am hearing a faint screech/whine from the back of my iPad Pro (2018) 11 inch. Performance is fine, I just want to be sure this is nothing to worry about.​

Thank you all.

 
I decided to order the 12.9” version for my 2018 model two days ago from Best Buy despite my disagreement with the price (though I did have a $130 BB Gift Card). I do like it. I like the weight it adds (freaky I know) and everything just works fantastically. However, $350 is ridiculous. Had it not been for my gift card, I would not have bought this.
 
Mine showed up this afternoon (11”) after ordering late in the day on launch day. This thing is actually very, very cool. :) Glad they went this direction with the iPad.

Mine was to be delivered April 24th through May 1st, and it was delivered this morning. Wish I had a little 3d printed bridge to go over the keyboard to use my Roli Blocks with. :) Another benefit is that, while it’s mounted and I’m creating music using the iPad Pro using the microphone, I don’t have to worry about running out of power :D

Happy to be expecting a Friday pick-me-up. Hope that everyone has theirs soon!
