well guys just to say arrived 5 mins ago...and just to say you guys been awesome good luck to the rest
My tracking status is currently 'Please Call' but after two calls to TNT (national helpdesk and local depot), I am assured it's out on delivery and <surly>"could be up to six"</surly>
ITS HERE!!!
I got called down to sign for it, as the UPS guy was under instructions that only the named recipient could sign. Woo hoo.
Its well worth the wait. People keep popping in to have a look at it. Its just lovely.
Good luck to everyone still waiting.

TW1 (Twickenham) post code. TNT just delivered mine. The TNT guy was friendly but definitely hassled. He said that normally his round would be finished by about midday but, with all the iPads on top of his normal workload, he won't be done until about 17:30.
As possibly my last contribution here I'll take the opportunity to lower the tone a bit. I was so desperate (remember that word) to not miss the ring on the doorbell that I didn't want to do anything that might prevent me from answering the door promptly so the arrival of my iPad is a relief in more ways than one!

Is that true for everyone??? as only my girlfriend is waiting in for it?!!??
Mine was getting delivered to my work address - didn't mean to panic you!!!
Not delivered here in Liverpool city centre.
TNT reported it was out for delivery at 9:20am.
Everybody in the office keeps saying it won't be here today, but I'll enjoy it when Mr TNT proves them wrong!
...I hope he/she is here by 5:30pm though!

For all those waiting for TNT London City to deliver...
I called them earlier and they said they have 13,000 iPads waiting to go out and that's why the tracker hasn't been updated yet.
However, I have been told that my 32Gb wifi will be delivered today (fingers crossed)
In the event that it doesn't arrive by 6pm, you can collect it from the depot after 6:30pm with two forms of ID, driving licence and utility bill.

Yeah that tracking tool hasn't been too useful for me either. I never saw the international leg of the journey. When it first worked last night it said please call, this morning it said the iPad had reached the depot and was now out for delivery and now I've gone back to please call.
When I did call last night I got told not to expect anything before Saturday as there had been a delay. So I was quite happy to see that appeared not to be the case this morning. But since there's no one at home and I imagine the 'leave it with the neighbours' note on the door would go against Apple's instructions, I'm hoping the please call now just signifies either more glitchiness or a failed delivery attempt...
Hope yours shows up soon.
