Looks like the packages are getting prepared for shipment in the oder they were ordered

Definitely not the case, because mine was ordered at 5:33am, just a few minutes after orders started being taken - and it JUST now changed to prepared for shipment - I was starting to worry for a second!
 
Don't worry if yours don't say it yet, just check it tomorrow and all will be well.

But....If you keep checking too much, or calling you might get Steve upset, then...

No iPad for you...Come Back...ONE YEAR!!:p:D
 
I checked it at 9:00 PM Tuesday which is today and it also say "Prepared for Shipment". I ordered mine on March 22.

Now instead of counting down the days, since it's only a few days, we can start counting by the hour. :D
 
March 12, 5:36 AM PDT order - 64GB 3G... finally changed to "Prepared for shipping" as of 6:00 PM PST. :D
 
Yeah - Prepared for Shipment

Ordered Apr 12, 2010 at 09:36 AM PDT for delivery to El Paso, Texas. Now prepared for shipment!! :)
 
Mine as well, although they have not hit my credit card yet, and I know Apple will not actually ship until they do. :)

PREPARED FOR SHIPMENT!!! Now i can obsess over when it will say SHIPPED!!! mad scientist laugh!!!!
 
One more for Prepared for shipment. 64GB iPad WIFI + 3G.

Add me to the list too. It's about time, my order went in 2 minutes after the preorders opened up. I would have been faster if it weren't for ordering the accessories. :D

My travel has been extended though, now I won't be home on Friday, or Saturday for that matter. There's no Apple Store in the backwoods of West Virginia :(
 
Anyone in CA get "Prepared for Shipment"? I'm in CA and still no status change.
 
Man, all these threads and updates are just making more anxious! It would probably get here quicker if we all just forgot about it for a sec!! Can't wait now!
