Yup, my anticipation is slipping into frustration now. I've been hovering near the door since 8am and I've achieved diddly squat since then. C'moooooooon!
 
Mine just changed from "Out for delivery" to "Shipment Held In Warehouse. Follow Up Actions Underway." :confused:
It has a time stamp of 9 in the morning as well, just an hour after it was supposedly out. Seems there's quite a delay with their updates then.

Same thing happened to me so I called up the local depot and the guy said it was out for delivery, not sure why the status updated to that!
 
Friendly TNT chap just delivered my 64gb 3g iPad in Richmond TW10!

He had about 20 in his truck he said.

Left Byfleet at 07.41 fyi
 
Delivered! The missus just phoned to tell me, with great delight, seeing as I'm two hour drive from home.....
 
Has anybody called up London City to see if we can pick up from the depot in light of their complete cluster**** of a job?
 
Really tempted to sync it with my work laptop just so that I can have a play, the resync with my proper laptop when I get home......
 
This is just torture.

Office door bell rang - literally everyone who knew I had an iPad came running to see.

Turned out to be the case I ordered yesterday.

Still waiting for the actual iPad.
 
This is what my tracking looks like at the moment. UPS. Dundee is only about 40 minutes from here. But still not out for delivery apparently, so I guess it will arrive tomorrow.

Phoned London City this morning. Spoke to a guy in redeliveries who confirmed that my ipad was there and said I could come and collect it today. When I got there it was Ms Jobsworth on the desk, she told me that policy was that they had to attempt a home delivery first (apple's orders apparently) We argued back and forth for a while, my main arguement being what was the point of sending it to my house today when the knew I wasn't there......because I was standing in front of her desk...
Anyway, I had to resort to my best "angry posh voice" and asked to speak to the manager. She eventually backed down and said that they would make an exception in my case.

So, the upshot is.....I HAVE MY iPAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't use it until I get home a sync though, this will be the longest day at work ever. I'm settling for gazing adoringly at it as it charges on my desk.

Thank you all for being as nuts as me !

I look forward to joining the "How much is everyone loving their iPad" thread.

Take a look at my earlier post....given the hassle I had, I don't fancy your chances!
 
Here is a fun game to play.

The TNT van is going to come around the corner in 5,4,3,2,1....not this time because I didn't say it right.

TNT van in 5,4,3,2,1......nope.......
 
Still waiting on TNT in Chesterfield, and to add insult to dissapointment, there is a team of people going around the office with a 64gb one sealed in it's box, selling raffle tickets to win it :( :eek:
 
Yeah people have had it through UPS today.

I'm still waiting though, but sureley, if it says ' out for delivery' on my tracking, it will arrive today?
 
Well the UPS delivery has been, and I now have the case, VGA cable and the camera connection kit. TNT - I need something to plug these into sometime soon please! ;)
