Already did that.
I’m seeing the same, and based on past launch day orders, I think it’s normal. Some folks will see packages in MyChoice a couple of days in advance, but for me it’s typically the day before. I think it has more to do with proximity to the nearest AI warehouse than anything else.

Has anyone used Best Buy to trade in a device in the past? did the Best Buy trade in of my M1 when buying the M4. I noticed it stated after receipt of trade in in store it could take 7 days to update my total cost. Not a big deal. BUT, wondering i can keep my M1 home for a day or two to make sure i want to keep the M4 before trading it in and then I have none if i decide to return the M4. Does that make sense? I guess i can call BB support but figured I would inquire here first. Thanks!
Apple gives you more

I traded in a iPhone before and they let me transfer everything over then took it and closed the trade-in and I got the discount price quoted during checkout.

Check back 8 am local time on Wednesday. When they will open up in stock units for pick up that day.

I suspect you'll be fine in getting one Wednesday.

Ordered 13" iPad Pro 512GB with Magic Keyboard and Pencil Pro, WiFi + Cell. Delivery this Wednesday. Whoa, expensive! Figures the 2nd gen pencil is not compatible. Comforting myself with that I need expenses to balance income 😜 Upgrading from 2020 iPad Pro 11". Always missed my 1st gen 12.9" iPad Pro. Not just the screen of the 11" but the keyboard also feel cramped to me. Just IMO, I understand it's a very individual experience.

Ordered a 13” and keyboard. Already have a Pencil 2. Not sure I need a 3.
Apple told me the pencil 2 was not compatible. But then the 1st tier Apple reps need more training in my experience so perhaps that info was incorrect.

Sorry if asked and answered but I'm stuck on the page where you customize your order because the entire section for the Magic Keyboard is grayed out. Am I missing something?
I don't recall what it was but there was something you had to choose, maybe engraving, and click Save. Then you could order the Magic Keyboard. Haven't read every post so perhaps someone already replied. sorry if so.

You need a pro for the new iPads the redesigned camera changed the layout of the charger and magnets so it’s not compatible with the old ones

Stuck in preparing to ship for iPad Pro 11", Apple Pencil, and Kayboard. Ironically, everything except keyboard shows 05/15 delivery and keyboard says 2-4 business days. WTF Apple I ordered right after the site was live.

Only the Pencil Pro and USB-C are compatible with the new airs and pros.

Interesting. Is this region-dependent? Here in Portland, OR, I just configured both silver and black 11-in 256GB iPad Pro with no engraving, with Pencil Pro and Magic Keyboard, and per the Apple site, it says they'd be available for in-store pickup on May 15. Delivery would be May 16-20 in my Portland zip code. Now, I didn't actually place the order(s), so perhaps that changes everything.

Been “preparing to ship” since last week. Still says it’s arriving on Wednesday. Nothing in MyChoice.

If Apple are telling you launch day you’ll get it launch day. They’re very rarely wrong.

Denim Smart Folio arrives tomorrow. I still have a sneaking suspicion I’m going to be tempted to exchange for 13”.

I’m hoping they have some nano texture models available. Sometimes CTO models go ”on rotation” at larger stores. My 11” nano isn’t scheduled to arrive until mid-June.
