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.

Mac Mini 2.4ghz, Mac OS X (10.6.6), Iphone 3g,

Still trawling the forum to see who has got a 32GB 3G AT&T version so far from online order. Have found one who has reported so far with the white version. I have two orders in for the Black version - 12:40AM and 12:42AM as per Apple order acknowledgement. I haven't come across anyone ahead in the queue from me for this model so far, but my status is still "Not Yet Shipped". Maybe I should go knock on Apple HQ (20 miles from my home).:)

I'm kind of concerned about mine not showing any movement ...I see others on here move right through once it leaves Shenzhen. Any ideas? It still shows delivery date of Friday, 3/18

I ordered my black 16GB engraved iPad 2 with Wi-Fi on March 11, 1:56 PST. However, I was reading over everyone else's posts, and I noticed that the rest of you guys that ordered an hour before me will have your iPads shipped 3 business days before mine. Right now, my iPad is in Lantau Island, Hong Kong. It is supposed to come on March 22, and I really hope that it might come two business days early so that I can use it over the weekend!

And in response to your question, ncsuboner, your iPad should go to Anchorage, Alaska after being in Hong Kong. Good luck on receiving your iPad!

Hang in there guys. They get hung up in Hong Kong and Alaska for awhile but then start their move. Takes 9 hours from Alaska to Memphis hub

Does anyone know if it usually delivers quickly once it hits Memphis hub?
Apple indicates delivers by today but Fedex tracking says tomorrow. I am in Boston.

Ordered white wi fi only 32gb. Timestamp on order 12:47 am 3:47 my time) Mar. 11

Good Luck everyone. Anticipation is so strong especially when I skipped first iPad and it took a lot of discipline to save $$$ for this one. For some $500-800 is still a heck of a sum of money.

I ordered my iPad early Friday morning and received the confirmation e-mail. However, my card hasn't been charged yet? Does anyone know if Apple charges the card after the iPad ships or does this mean I've been waitlisted?

I checked the status of my order and it still says deliver March 22-29th.



piandchocolate, credit card is charged after it ships. In my case I ordered 11th, card was charged when it reached Alaska on the 14th. Still awaiting delivery today or tomorrow. Its at FedEx Memphis hub now.

I ordered the 64GB white AT&T ipad at 12:48 PST on 3/11. On Sunday night the status changed to prepared for shipment and it's still saying that as of 6:30 a.m. Weds. However, the Apple store near me is getting new stock this morning and so is Best Buy. Hey, Apple, how about sending some of those stock orders to the hundreds of thousands of customers who are stuck in a black shipping hole?

Soooo I'm patiently waiting.
Order Date: Mar 11, 2011 at 01:06 AM PDT
Not yet shipped
IPAD WI-FI 3G 64GB WHITE-USA AT&T
Ships: 3 - 5 business days
Delivers: Mar 18 - Mar 25

A lot different in speed considering my iPhone4 arrived almost instantly day of issue.
I received the cover yesterday.
Has anyone else received this model ordered this early?

Mar 16, 2011 5:57 AM in response to ncsuboner

I'm a little annoyed reading these posts because I'm realizing that many people who ordered AFTER I did have already had their iPad shipped. I ordered at 3:56 am EST, White 64 GB Wireless only with green cover. Cover has already arrived but my shipping status of 3-5 days, March 18-25 is the only thing listed for the iPad. It hasn't been prepared for shipment, nothing.

I don't mind waiting if it's consistent but that is not looking like the case.
