Ours went into preparing for shipment about a week ago with a delivery expected between 4/27 and 5/4. It’s still PFS, no change and it being the 28th. Anyone else experiencing this?
Got a tip for us?

Mine had a date of 4/23-4/30 and was in PTS for over a week. It finally arrived today. I would guess you’ll get it by Friday, but hopefully sooner.
Update: just got shipped and expected to arrive april 30thordered April 16th at 9 PM, expected April 27-may 4 but still stuck in "preparing to ship" and has been for over a week now ughIt's going to CT
My card was charged last night my estimated delivery was 4/28-5/5. Now preparing to ship. We shall see...
I’ve used the 10.5 iPad pro for the last 2 1/2 yrs with the Smart keyboard case. I just got the 2018 11 inch pro about a month ago along with the Smart Keyboard folio and just got the Magic Keyboard case Friday. The nature of an iPad in these cases in general is that it’s top heavy...compared to a MBP for example. However, I don’t find the Magic Keyboard any more top heavy than the other two...and none of the 3 have been a problem for me from this respect.
Apple’s done a great job with the balance of the magic keyboard case I think. There is a lot of weight in the base to counterbalance this top heavy nature. This along with the limits on how far the hinges can go back...and how you’re able to adjust the hinges to find a more natural balance...makes this concern a non issue for me.
btw...the Magic keyboard case is awesome. I returned the Smart Keyboard case as soon as I tried the MKC. IMHO...the integrated trackpad is a game changer. I’m a MacBook Pro user and I just set the trackpad to “tap to click” (just like on my MBP)...it’s like having a mini-MBP!
Its rock solid for me on the lap and sat in a recliner. The typing experience is also superb, love the backlit keys too. No complaints here.

Yes Best Buy is sold out for me also. I ordered from Apple on April 20 and haven’t received any updates other than processing for shipment.
have the 12.9 pro and have been put off getting the magic keyboard as I have a MacBook Pro. I figure I can do any major typing on that. I am, however wondering if I should get the MKB.
Thanks for your reply. (And pythagorasuk) SO tempted to try!....
Just got my Magic Keyboard today
$420 in Canada for me pre tax, going to give it a very hopeful go because I want to see how it enhances my iPad experience and whether it can serve as a suitable laptop replacement.
If it replaces my Laptop, then it will be worth it for me
Seems very expensive for build quality though, my first impression.
The Magnets and how it "just works" is awesome though but it's worth what my laptop is worth on a trade in!
I remain optimistic!

Ordered MKB 4/16 with a delivery window of 4/27-5/4 and finally shipped today! Expected to deliver on 4/30. My UPS tracking number doesn’t work which seems to be a common issue. Is it worth calling Apple or just wait and see if it fixes itself?
Mine has been out for delivery from UPS for a second day in a row now and still hasn’t shown up. Package tracker map has also disappeared. I’m thinking it’s no dice for today as it’s already after 6 pm local time.
So Best Buy seemed to have good intentions but I don’t think UPS is in as big of a hurry as they are.

Got the origin scan earlier today in Louisville. There is one UPS flight from Louisville to Columbus tonight and it departs in a few minutes. If I don’t get the departure scan within the hour, it probably won’t make it tomorrow.
[Edit]: There is another flight that arrives in Columbus at 4:48 AM, so it might be on that one.

I had the tracking number issue with Best Buy. Eventually ups picks it up and it gets updated.
