Still no answers... Just "prepared for shipment" for the 7th day :-(

On a brighter note, my free keyboard and AV cord will be here Monday! Happy Birthday to me :)

Does it say "origin post is preparing shipment"? If so I HATE THAT for regular mail. I just got something Express Mail International from China and it still was stuck at "origin post is preparing shipment" for 4 days. You should have it soon if that's what it says. The longest I've ever seen that was 9 business days.

No it doesn't say that but when I call the reps try to reassure me with saying, it's packaged, labeled, and waiting to be picked up by the carrier (I don't believe this). If my ipad wasn't engraved and a gift I would have cancelled bc Walmart up the road has a few in stock. Monday will be day 3 of their "2-4 business day" estimate...

Finally received my ipad 2 :). It took roughly 5 days to get with the 2-3 business day delivery with expedited shipping. It has met every one of my expectations! Now back to playing with my new toy.

I'd ask for any shipping fees be refunded if they miss the 2-4 business days. Seems like you're getting the run around.

Just received notice that my iPad shipped. Ordered May 9; originally said it would ship on May 23 and be delivered on May 27. Today's email and subsequent check on FEDEX showed shipment yesterday with expected delivery on the 26th.

Just got a notice saying mine will be here on Thursday the 26th by 4:30 pm. This is great news!!!! So I am relieved this is so much better than being pushed back to June 3rd, like the last information I had gotten. So we shall keep our fingers crossed that both will arrive in excellent condition and we can begin to play!!!!

I got mine on March 11 after 3 hours in line at the Michigan store in Chicago, but ordered two more for my parents.

I ordered them on May 4 and got them on May 19, one of them shipped Fedex and the other UPS.

Also I went to the apple store this am for something else and found out the had all 3G models in stock so the distribution channel to stores is not so dry any more.

This sucks. I went to check the status of my order today and the delivery date got delayed by 3 days. It was originally supposed to arrive on Friday June 3. Now it says I have to wait until Monday June 6. There goes the weekend!

How come everyone else's orders are getting bumped up but mine got pushed back?

Hang in there. Mine got pushed from delivery May 25th to June 5th back to May 26th.

According to Fed-Ex it has come and gone from Anchorage, Alaska today. I guesstimate Anchorage to Los Angeles tomorrow. Los Angeles to Redlands CA could be done on Wednesday, but it is projected for Thursday by 4:30 pm. I'll keep y'all posted.

Well, I found a 32gb black at Walmart today, so I picked that up and cancelled my Apple store order. Hope I made someone else's shipment get bumped up!
