Okay, I just got home from work...
...anyone else's UPS showing "delivery by 26th" which is today?
Whilst in reality I'm not expecting it this evening, it really is confusing and one hell of a poor product launch. So much confusion, I've never remembered so much difficulty with tracking a delivery.
Mine shows as delivered by 25th...hows that for ya?

Okay Marty McFly, you definitely win!
I'm in the Midlands and I'm still in Netherlands
What time did yours show up in Arnhem? Its probably not still there, certainly not if it got there in the early hours.
Im in Nuneaton, my ipad isnt, and Im looking out of my window expecting a giant ipad-shaped cloud to appear over their depot
Mine is a Nuneaton one and the guy and woman at TNT both said it was picked up from Apple today (in the UK) although the woman did put me through to TNT International which is a little strange!
I got mine delivered to work because I thought it would be here on Friday.
My local TNT is the building next to where I work but I'm off to play golf tomorrow. Doh!!
Hopefully someone will look after it and I might even pop in to collect

I get the "15:35 Nuneaton" "in transit" from the international tracker and the "Out for delivery" from the TNT UK tracker. I'm guessing tomorrow...?
Okay Marty McFly, you definitely win!
Lol, what I meant was don't count on it! I'd rather have one that says delivery expected on 28th than 25th.
Ha! now i called again after someone said that they called and was told it would be delivered tomorrow, and this time the lady said they (TNT) didn't even have them yet, they wouldn't get them until friday, and would deliver Saturday or Tuesday (after i pointed out monday was a bank holiday). Smelt like a standard line but who knows...
So basically it's all bollocks and can't do anything about it - but wait
Year, yours is nearly 12 hours ahead of mine so good luck
We need a lorry tracker like we had the flight tracker

So so so... They go by road too? The next time we'll get updates then is when they go through customs, I spose

Thats probably the least reliable info from TNT since someone said they were told there had been a probem with their ipads flight to Europe!
Still I do feel quite sorry for all the people who work for TNT who have had to deal with more calls than usual.
Hi all. Been lurking past couple of weeks. thought I should join as the excitement reaches boiling point.
Been tracking using TNT international site, live in the midlands and im still on:-
26 May 2010 03:32:28 Arnhem Hub Shipment In Transit.
would be nice to get it tomorrow though.

I dont know, I originally thought the ones from HK would go straight from Liege to the UK by air, but that clearly didnt happen, and Ive yet to see anybodies tracker that shows Arnhem change to something else.
I think Arnhem is a TNT road hub but thats not 100% proof that they wont fly them.
Its not even clear that messages about customs will show up on the tracker, I think they usually do but my prediction powers have been far from perfect so far.
Mine is also now saying Estimated Delivery Date (Subject to change) 27th May, and it is coming by UPS.
This is actually an issue for me, as I had arranged UPS-watch* for Friday, so I called. The very helpful UPS lady said:
- it is due to be delivered before 6pm tomorrow
- if I am not there they will try again Friday (good!)
- they can't append a "before 11:30am" plea as "they don't have the package in their possession yet"
I offer this information in good faith, I don't want to get involved in the nascent flame war about deliveries tomorrow. Have to say, I am pretty excited, but with a BH Monday, and a complicated life next week, a bit nervous.
My wife asked me this morning what was I going to "do" with it. I didn't exactly have a concrete answer, yet I can hardly wait for it to arrive!
iPad 3G, Voda SIM, case, UPS for the record.
Good luck

wtf ? Mine is out for delivery from nuneaton (not far away) and have been told I can have it held for pickup from the depot tomorrow morning at 8am OR just have it delivered tomorrow between 8-5. I chose the delivery option seen as the lady said it will definitely be tomorrow as there are no holds on any parcels.
So keep your fingers crossed everyone, we may all see our iPads arriving tomorrow!!!

Just checked my TNT delivery. Was OK when I checked before leaving work, showing in Nuneaton.
Now it says Call us. Currently on hold with TNT "we're currently experiencing a high number of calls"... REALLY ????
