UK Pre-order - "Shipped By" or "Delivered By"??

So, I pre-ordered my iPad, an O2 micro-sim and a case at 12.22am on the 10th May.

I notice my order status says "Estimated shipping by May 28th", so I phoned Apple to enquire as to whether I could expect delivery on the 28th.

The rep told me that some orders show "estimated delivery by May 28th" and some show "estimated shipping by May 28th"

Now, if it means they're not going to ship my iPad before the 28th..then I'm not too pleased!!

So the question is...does anyone in the UK's order status say "delivered by May 28th"??

When I try to track mine on UPS's website, I just get a message saying ">>> UPS could not locate the shipment details for your request. Please verify your information and try again later."

The tracking number I'm entering is the one that Apple gave me on their own Shipment Status page: namely a 10-digit number (all numbers, no letters) that is listed on the Apple site as both "Our Delivery Reference Number" and "Carrier Tracking Number". As far as I can tell, this doesn't seem to be an actual UPS tracking number ... but I'd love to figure out how I can get the right one. :/

Any thoughts, anyone?
