When do I get some sort of tracking number for this thing? Do I have to wait till its shipped?
Ordered a 32GB Black AT&T on April 9th when the shipping wait times were 2-3 weeks.
Originally scheduled for a May 2nd ship date with a May 5th expected delivery date.
Just got the email that it shipped today (April 27th)! Expected delivery of May 3rd!
My order that I placed early morning on the 20th is still "not yet shipped".
But, my estimated ship date is May 11th and delivers May 13th.
I imagine my status will change by the weekend hopefully.
mine just changed to prepaird for shipment like around 4 this afternoon ive been checking all day
ive waited all this time deff eager to get it but im not keeping my hopes up lol
Yeah mine was about 18 hours in PFS.
But the worse of the wait is over, the wait during not yet shipped lol.
Ordered my iPad 2 on April 13th. Received my e-mail shipment notification on 4/30. Set to be delivered tomorrow 4/3. I spoke to UPS this morning because the UPS tracking website still says it's in Chengdu, China as of 5/1 at 4:51am their local time. Rep told me that still scheduled for tomorrow morning by 10:30am and that with the time difference shouldn't be a problem.
I ordered my iPad on April 20th, and it came this morning. In fact, I'm posting this reply on my new white 64 gig wifii iPad. It was originally estimated to come May 4, but by watching the tracking info from Fed-ex and the yahoo small business webpage I realized it was coming this morning while I was at work. I called home and woke up my college age son and told him to camp out by the front door so there would be no mistake about delivery. I also had him email me when it got to the house. It was hard to put in the whole work day knowing it was home, but somehow I made it!
The information I picked up from this blog post was really helpful in figuring out when it was going to arrive. The yahoo small business webpage definitely gave me more details than the Fed-Ex website did. It also seemed to update just a little faster than the Fed-Ex site did. Go figure!
I was torn between going to the local store and camping/hanging out waiting to see if they had 1 for me. When I called the store to check on shipment inventory, they went from telling me to come early to recommending ordering it online. I decided to be patient and order it from apple. Now I have the one I want, plus I had it engraved, which is a small detail, but one I wanted. Anyway, it's here and it's cool, and I couldn't be happier. if you're still waiting for yours......hang in there.
You got yours quick. I ordered mine one day later and its only "prepared for shipment." Did you do the quicker shipping?
