    It seems that a lot of the Wi-Fi models have been dispatched, with the cellular models still processing. My Wi-Fi model was dispatched this morning with estimated delivery of tomorrow.

    Wifi only 64GB. Ordered a little while after orders went live. I was hoping for the earlier Wednesday estimate from Apple but suppose I'll have to wait until Thursday or Friday.

    Mine just shipped too, estimated delivery date of tomorrow. Shipping via DHL, think that's a first for me. Hopefully not as bad as TNT.

    Just sold my iPad an hour ago so perfect timing :D

    How did you fair out price wise for the Air?

    I sold a 32GB with warranty until December 24th in mint condition - got €350 and pretty easily too. Sold within 24 hours with another person on the waiting list if that sale fell through. €350 seems to be the standard price, €109 cheaper than brand new. Although Argos were selling it for €389 new so that could of affected it, but luckily didn't.

    I'm living Dublin 1 city centre if that makes any difference? I'm hoping I get it before Friday anyways but I'd expect there could he delays. Coming from Hinkley so it's over on a boat to the Dublin facility and out for delivery I suppose.

    My iPad Mini doesn't get any use after my iPhone 6 arrived Friday. Might sell it and make the switch up to the Air.

    Thanks for the heads up, I had my iPhone ship from Shenzhen, China and arrive in Dublin two days later so I suppose its very possible. :D

    New iPad specs looking good, triple-core??? and 2GB of RAM. Really glad to see the 2GB, safari tabs constantly reloading was a pain. Looking forward to getting mine tomorrow.

    From East Midlands Airport is is usually flown overnight to Europe, then Dublin for Distribution.

    For product for Cork then to Shannon(UPS) to Little Island.

    About 13 hours to get to you, hopefully.

    Ps no flights overnight from EMA to Ireland.

    Once had an Apple product made in Cork, flown to UK onto Köln then Dublin to Shannon onto Cork. The plant us only 20 mins from me
