iPad 2 Shipping

Has anyone that has had their iPad already ship seen it move from Lantau Island, HK? Nothing has changed as far as the ship date or the delivery date, it just has not moved in a day or so.

FedEx still shows delivery for tomorrow but I called them and she said it JUST left Hong Kong and won't be delivered until next week--most likely between the 22nd and 25th.

I then called Apple and they said that is still within the initial committment dates (between the 18th and 25th) and said they'd credit me for the cover (which I received in ONE day, btw).

Anyone else who had the same tracking as me may want to call FEDEX and see if they give you the same story :

Did you use the tracking tool that arunasour posted above? Its more robust than fedex.com. Mine shows the same as yours on fedex.com, but using that yahoo tracker it shows:

I'm hoping that this means that it left on that flight to Memphis.

Near as I can tell the delivery dates for the iPad 2 are pretty much on schedule, even if at the 'latest' date estimate.

My iPad, like many others, has been at Lantau Island, HK for over 24 hours now. But the estimated delivery dates have not changed.

Not to be a broken record… but I can't imagine that the Japan crisis isn't having a profound effect. Even if Japan is not 'on the route' it would seem to me that cargo planes could be called upon frequently for humanitarian needs. And I know we all agree that if Japan needs our iPad carrying planes to deliver food and clothing to Japan they are MORE than welcome to it. I don't know that that's the case… but right now I certainly think it's possible.. so I'm very patient. - JamesJM
