Ordered May 4, with delivery May 20-28. I hoped that was a conservative estimate, but there are no updates. And now my order doesn’t even show any more, it just says ”check back in a few hours.”

Meanwhile my SKF is starting to have more and more connection problems with the iPad: “this accessory is not compatible...”
 
Just chiming in to confirm this. You are the real MVP here. Verizon does in fact have them in stock with free two-day shipping. Ordered mine late Wednesday night. It shipped Thursday and will arrive tomorrow! FYI it ships from within the USA so it doesn't have to clear Chinese customs.

Chiming in to say it arrived today. On time! And it has no bubbles or dents. Verizon came through on this one.

I asked Apple about that yesterday. They said that portion of their system was undergoing maintenance and it’d be back today. It’s back.

I ordered on May 3 with the same delivery window; still “processing.” Barring a miracle on/before Tuesday, pretty sure this is the first time for me that Apple hasn’t beaten the early end of a delayed delivery window. Not that it isn’t understandable.

Yes, it's back. But, also my order is still "processing." These days Amazon and Best Buy give very conservative shipping estimates, but they alway handsomely beat them. I had hoped that would be the case here. Today the Apple stores here are re-opening. Perhaps I can get one from the store instead.

Well, now mine is in preparing to ship. Progress

Ordered April 24th, was supposed to be for next week originally, but it got moved up a week, and it was supposed to arrive yesterday (18th). However, it never arrived. UPS tracking is a mess for some reason, and I can't reach a person over the phone because COVID, so I'm not sure what's happening there. I got the UPS My Choice notification that it was coming in on Monday (18th) the previous day, and then today got another email notification that it was coming today (the 19th).

Either the FL arrival information is wrong, and it hadn't left OH (there's no departure scan from OH, just arrival and then arrival in FL) or it's being moved around for some reason within the system.

Here's to hoping for today.

Mine’s shipped! Set for delivery via UPS on Thursday.
Mine too. Not a bit too early. My SKF has become almost impossible to connect. It almost always give “this accessory is not supported.” Either I will replace it with the magic keyboard, or I will get a new SKF.

They went out of stock quickly, but back in this afternoon - it even works with the Unidays discount for 20% off! Just ordered myself an 11" for £235-ish.

Now just need my iPad to come, ordered from TheEduStore but no word on a delivery date yet...
 
Got mine today. Had to wait a while as I ordered one from abroad (as I need the foreign keys for my language studies).

Received Mine on Tuesday from Verizon after ordering Friday (and cancelling my month old order through Apple).

I can report the same, also no issues with the trackpad or any other quirky issues reported with my 12.9” MK.

Received my 12.9” MK from Best Buy today and am really enjoying it. It’s great to get a lot of typing done on the couch or in bed without always having to bring out my 16” MBP.

Great news! I have the MK but the iPad arrives tomorrow. Was supposed to be today but was delayed by one day. Cheers.

Thanks for this. I was on the fence about buying the AMK for my 12.9” but with the 20% off and being in stock, I ordered one and it’s due tomorrow 😊
 
My 12.9” AMK is out for delivery today! I’ve ordered a dbrand skin for the back of the iPad as well. This may sound silly or sad, but I’m going to give my iPad a good clean and wipe down and start it from fresh when the Magic Keyboard arrives, so it will feel like a brand new iPad 😍

I’m interested to hear what you think of it Mandy. I’m wondering if it makes the 12.9” too big and heavy?

Hi, it just arrived a few minutes ago. Wow! This thing is gorgeous! Even after watching lots of YouTube reviews, it looks so much nicer in person. I’m so pleased with it. Getting 20% off made me pull the trigger. Yes, its heavy, but it’s so lovely to type on and I will just cope, like I did when I first got my 12.9”. It’s not like I’ll be walking around with it all the time. It’s worth it for me. This has totally refreshed my 2018 iPad. It’s not perfect, but nothing else comes close in my opinion.

When is yours due?
