Ordered myself a case and screen protector from Mobile fun.

bad news for 4g lte expecting customers...even if 4g is rolled out in the UK or elsewhere outside the US or canada...the ipad will only work on 3g.

http://www.tapscape.com/new-ipad-3-is-incompatible-with-international-4g-lte-networks/

It supports HSPDA+ which can deliver downloads speeds faster than ADSL. Should be more than enough for most people when on the move. I've only found 3 and Vodafone to have a decent HSPDA coverage though.

Aren't 02 meant to be trailing 4G in London?

[MikeHiow]

They are, but on different frequencies to the US networks, so it'll be useless to iPad 4G users.

I got a text at 02:30 last night telling me my 16GB + 4G had shipped!

TNT - never had them deliver to me before so it's a bit of an unknown. They can't find it on tracking on their website lol.

Won't be until the item starts moving, takes a day or two for most couriers to show any information.

Hey all

A quick heads up, whoever delivers your item from Apple will not let a neighbour sign for your parcel it has to be someone at your delivery address, its Apple policy apparently found this out on the day my 4s was due to arrive from tnt.

Was at work so threw a sick for the rest of the day.

Will be queueing up for the iPad at my local reseller, did the same last year for the ipad2

Cheers

Was on MacRumours earlier.. Even weirder! I wouldn't be able to sign for my own iPad

My 4S was left with a neighbour

 

[TriedandTested]

What number do you use to track the item?

 

[roman59]

Tnt would not have left my 4s with a neighbour only someone at the delivery address, which courier delivered yours?

Cheers

 

[scudstrike]

The number you use to track the item is the: tracking number

You click "track shipment" and eureka!

 

[pumaz]

You lucky people! mine still says processing

I ordered a Black 64GB and a Apple TV, It wasn't till I placed my order a just before midnight on release day that I found out the Apple TV could slow my order down

 

[Robbo]

TNT aren't allowed to leave anything with your neighbour, it has to be signed for by someone in the actual address it is being delivered to.

Exact same here. My black 64gb iPad and Apple TV also still says processsing. . But I do still ahve a estimated ship date of March 16-19 so that's good I suppose!

 

[Spit]

Thats because of your Apple TV. They had a date of 16th-19th. They are bundling it together.

Trustedreviews have said the new iPad has an increase to 1.5GHz on the CPU speed. Nice if true.
