Everyone in the UK is waiting to see what the order pages shows when it comes back online. Is it going to be a 21st May delivery date? Or may be 27th/28th May? Or have things slipped by 2 - 3 weeks :oops:

Fingers crossed everyone for a 21st May :D
 
Everybody can calm down again now. 😄
Mine’s back to 21-27, so still no real idea if it’s arriving Friday.
 
Very ordered checked update from 15th and still showing 28th. I move House on 28th so was hoping it would be before this date.
 
Heads up, EduStore is now taking orders for the new ipad pros and have decent savings on top of apple's existing education pricing e.g. 12.9 128gb wifi IPP for £899

Doesn’t this suggest that stocks of these iPads are either here or in a nearby country ready to dispatch for overnight delivery by the end of the week?

Wishful thinking perhaps.

I don't think they will be dispatched from another country directly to customers due to tax and import fees.
Apple (or their agent) will import them wholesale and then dispatch them from their UK branch.

I think you guys should relax. It's always this way. Dates will adjust this week.

I was meaning that they might be in transit via another country such as Eire for example. Don’t Apple have a major distribution centre there?

Anyway, I’m pretty relaxed as it happens. I would just prefer to have more definite information. This launch seems more vague than others.

I think they have something on Cork in Ireland. I'm betting that they are all already here in the UK and will prepare for shipment and dispatch wed/thu.
 
Anyone had their card charged yet in the UK? Saw some Canada folk got theirs charged Sunday!
