Looks legitimate enough to me... I analysed the pixels! Does this count as pre-empting the 100 pages in this thread, as he's not an active participant?
 
An update on the straggling ipads that were still in Arnhem at 2PM yesterday so then went back to Liege and flew to East Midlands overnight...

It made it to the UK and got scanned at 5.44AM.
It made it to my local depot (which is in the Midlands) at 7.24AM.

Im sure this was a few hours too late for it to be put on a normal van for delivery today, so I expect it tomorrow, but I suppose there is still some tiny chance they will send another van out with it later. Im just happy that it is now in the right part of the UK for me, yay.

thinking about it... even if i do get it before college starts (11:30am) I still have to charge it fully and then sync it which could take hours... So I'll get it and be like "ok, now what? just leave it at home plugged into my macbook?" :(

iPhones tend to arrive with at least half charge. Assuming this is the same.... You should be able to just run with it and get some apps on the go? (College WiFi / 3g)
 
My mate has just had his delivered to home near Coalville Leics by TNT. Apparently the first that he had delivered today. Am at work now and getting distracted every time the car park barrier goes up, looking out for the UPS van!

Mine only made it to Preston overnight :mad:

Hopefully I may be able to collect it from the depot this evening if it makes sufficient progress today.....

But in the meantime....Damn you all to hell! :D

Mine left the Preston depot out for delivery at 4:35 at least thats when they scanned it. I rang them (Leyland) and they said the vans left about 7:45am. So it should be here anytime now. Wife wasn't too happy had to get a bus to work, just in case. I am camped near the window with MBP.

well my accessories are here. no iPad as thats via tnt. UPS were great.

Seemingly the drivers have to sign for every parcel before taking them for delivery and cannot leave them with anyone other than the householder.

I have to work today but my girlfriend has offered to stay in and wait for it, she'll be able to sign for it and receive it, right?
 
I've got mine - Knutsford, Cheshire, from the Bredbury depot. Lovely TNT man said they had thousands to deliver today.

I actually squealed when I saw him! :)
 
Just saw a UPS van coming my way.......shame I'm waiting on TNT wahahahaha :cool:


And congrats to everyone who have theirs, this thread is brilliant, shame it has to end.

I'm in Ulverston, but Leyland is nearest depot. I know it's just over an hours drive from there to here.

Suppose so... Although the other solution is to take a portable power supply around college with me and let it suck power from that until it's at 100%. Or better still - in both Bio and Chem, I sit next to a socket, and the iPad comes with a power brick, right?.. ;) :D

Stealing college electricity ftw.
