Thanks for sharing! As far as I know, there shouldn't be any Chinese holidays in this period... maybe they're just referring to the week-end!

Ours are still sat on some bench in China while the boat sails off into the sunset.

My 64GB 3G iPad, case, camera connection kit and O2 sim is sat with yours at the moment ("Not yet shipped" and can still cancel/edit shipping address).

Have any orders with O2 sims shipped yet?

But I agree with Mightyflub - I think we will all get them on Friday.

It's buddahs birthday in hong kong, according to wikipedia(remember, it stops off at Lantau island)

editr not because it's going through TNT but some companies may still abide by the holiday even if it's not held all across the country

I *had* an Orange sim on the order but removed it very shortly afterwards for this very reason. I didn't want a hold up for a 20p bit of plastic I didn't even want.

I ordered exactly the same items, and my order is in exactly the same state. Maybe they're being dealt with in batches depending on what you've ordered?

 

[MightyFlub]

64gig 3G, o2 sim and extra power supply and cable for me.

 

[badbradderz]

I've ordered 3G 16gb with Orange microSIM and mine still shows "not yet shipped" on both UK and US stores, im trying not to worry but failing miserably and irritating my girlfriend in the process!

 

[SCOTTGAZ9]

Yes I can still cancel. No change. Just goes to show that waiting for the shop to open at that time in the morning was a total waste of time.

It would appear going with the comments on here that it was pretty pointless in placing an order at 12- 1230 am when orders placed later have been processed / shipped

wtf is going on here?

 

[MightyFlub]

There must be some pattern but it seems pretty random at the moment. I got up at about 5:45 UK time and place my order but it hasn't gone to processing yet.

Ahh at least I am not all alone now.

 

[dwright1974]

Mine is showing as 'Prepared for Shipment'. I'm kind of hoping it won't come until Friday though as I'm away Sunday - Wednesday!

I'd be gutted if it came while I was away and went back to the TNT depot!

Anyway, a good day!!

Edit: And I've been made a 'macrumors 6502'!! A double-good day, (I know, I'll get my coat!)

Totally agree.

 

[Peter Harrison]

Ordered at 4am (3am GMT) and apparently it's still not shipped yet.

 

[dwright1974]

Ordered at 4am (3am GMT) and apparently it's still not shipped yet.

That is strange - I ordered mine on the 11 May at 2.53PM and mine is showing as 'Prepared ...' on the US Store.

It could just be, as others have said, they are being processed in batches and it will change in the next few hours.

Just to add that I ordered mine 01:45 AM GMT (02:45 AM BST).

No mate your definitely not..order placed at 1235am 10th May as of yet no movement whatsoever
I have been assured today that all orders placed before the 13th May will be delivered by the 28th....going with recent events thou I wouldn't hold my breath.

 

[mattyuk]

this might be of help to people. Ok, I was bored and just dying to get this thing.

 

[DopeyFish]

Maybe all the orders have been processed? Mine says nothing has changed but apple has processed my credit card for payment (apple does say they only charge when they ship)

the system just might be way behind in updating the statuses

Looks nice but no doesn't help me I am afraid.

 

[mattyuk]

Fair enough maybe it was silly of me to post that, I apologise.

 

[Jr1985]

I've ordered iPad 32gb wifi only and case, and mine says "Prepared for shipping" on the US site.

 

[SCOTTGAZ9]

I,m off Friday and bank holiday monday and have planned some shopping for friday for holiday clothes ect so might just cancel and head into the Apple store in Glasgow.

 

[Boblister]

Fair enough maybe it was silly of me to post that, I apologise.

Hey if mine ever does get off the ground it might come up here on the same lorry. I am in Cumbria as well.

 

[mmoosa]

This is what the email says, fingers crossed for the being delivered 'before'

Haway Marra!
Nice to see a fellow Cumbrian.
