I don't know if I've just been lucky or whether supply constraints are easing in the UK, but I ordered my 64GB 3G+WiFi iPad yesterday and the original shipping date was the 28th June. Status changed to prepared for shipment this morning and it's out for delivery tomorrow with TNT UK. Quickest 7-10 days I've ever experienced - if only the working week was like that.

Supply Constraints Easing?

Well I don't see that happening here in the US, at least if you ordered it through the Apple Store. I ordered mine on June 5th and have a ship date of June 21st.
I see that Best Buy is beginning to get stock of the one I ordered (same as yours) and I'm really tempted to buy it from Best Buy and cancel the one I ordered from Apple.

Got one at Best Buy
I was on the same shipping schedule but found a 64GB/3g yesterday at Best Buy (in Mesquite, TX), so I bought it and canceled my order. They had, and still have, several in stock.

Looks like they are still going fast once people see that they are in stock. I would definitely check first before heading out to a local store to pick one up.
I think it must be getting better. I put my name on a list last thursday for a 3G 64gig model. In fact I asked for two of them. They sent me an email and a call and said they were in the next day. So one day wait for me... and I got unlimited data too.
