All my stuff (11” 256gb, Keyboard folio, and pencil) all left Louisville a couple of hours ago. May be on the same truck as you Chicagolanders - I’m in eastern Iowa and stuff generally goes throug the Hodgkins hub. Of course, I’m out of town until Thursday, so I’ll have to live vicariously through you all tomorrow! Have fun!

The best way to do this is to set up an alert when more than $1 is spent on the card. Once the charge is posted, your phone will get the notification. Then start refreshing to see if your order updates. otherwise you're just wasting time...

That seems odd if you were promised November 7 delivery. Might be time for a chat with Apple?

I got my AppleCare email. ‘Tis a small thing, but mine own.

Finally, are we going to have a last campfire tonight and roast marshmallows and sing songs? :)

No. I am actually scheduled for delivery 13-16. If they would at least charge my card, I'd feel much better.

Welcome to my current situation with Verizon at the moment... Order confirmation says delivery on 11/7 but no change from order pending at all...
 
My stuff has arrived in Salt Lake City. I can’t remember if it has to go to one of the suburbs before it gets on the truck to my little mountain town, or if it’ll load in SLC. Either way, I’m excited for tomorrow’s delivery.

I’m down for some marshmallows as well.

Yes my pencil has an arrival/departure scan now in Indianapolis. my keyboard and iPad do not have that, though...


We just got 7:43pm arrival scans for everything but my wife’s iPad in Indianapolis. Nothing so far for her iPad, but her departure scan from Louisville was different (3:46pm) than the stuff that has arrival scans in Indianapolis. All of those departure scans from Louisville were 4:07. I thought that was strange at the time but I guess it makes sense...multiple trucks I guess.

If they are indeed going to another hub before Chicago, it would make sense that there are other trucks. My brother's iPad is still left on departure scan from Louisville as well (3:14pm).

UPDATE: My brother's iPad just got his arrival scan to Hodgkins (7:09pm).
My iPad and keyboard are still showing their departure scans from Louisville.

Which little mountain town? I have family outside SLC :)

I think it’s kind of funny that my gen 1 Apple Pencil sold on eBay today and that I shipped it out to the buyer the day before my gen 2 arrives. I got $30 for it—I guess that makes up the difference in the price increase! ;)

My iPad and keyboard folio got import scans and left Louisville earlier today. They made a quick pit stop in West Virginia on their way to NC. They have had identical arrival and departure scans since Hong Kong so I guess they’ve been travel buddies for most of the trip.

My pencil on the other hand...arrived early in Louisville and sat there for a few days. It got an import scan earlier today and then nothing. Still says Nov 7 delivery so I’m hoping it still gets here...maybe it just missed a scan or the system isn’t caught up yet. Hmm...
 
Bought mine a bit late on preorder day and it's scheduled to arrive 11/16-21, hit "Preparing to Ship" yesterday afternoon with my card charged!
 
Everything arrived a few hours ago in the city so definitely going to enjoy tomorrow!
