I'm resting right here, still in wait for my iPad mini, pre-ordered as quickly as the Apple shop opened up here in the UK, and frustrated by the fact that also initial orders appears to have actually been delayed by up to 3 weeks. In spite of being informed 2 weeks at the factor of order, my forecasted day has continuouslied show 15th November, almost 3 weeks after the occasion. I could make an unique journey to any number of high road areas who are already revealing stock, so this does feel like inadequate customer care on Apple's part.

I'll criticize the recently left John Browett for making a decision that it was more vital for other resellers to have supply over those who pre-ordered. What else would certainly you expect from a person from Dixon's, other than poor customer support!
Anyhow, I've currently gotten my delivery notification, as well as am suggested that TNT is the service provider of selection. When I first got the notice via, both the 'monitoring number' as well as the 'Our shipment recommendation number' were revealing the same 10 numbers.
I went to the TNT UK site as well as attempted the Track alternative, and oddly this created a record for a distribution in Glasgow a week ago. It was soon evident that the number was being trimmed and producing a completely various outcome. UK consignment numbers for TNT seem 8 numbers.
I still couldn't find a way of obtaining a monitoring outcome, as well as assumed that Apple had not actually handed the consignment off to TNT then.
I returned to look again today, and discovered that the tracking recommendation has currently changed to a 9 figure number. TNT makes use of 9 number codes for global shipments, as well as if you intend to track them, you have to utilize a different page on TNT's global website
Currently I'm getting a match on the consignment, and its presently revealing that the bundle is leaving Shanghai's Pudong International Airport, with any luck today. Resembles I can still anticipate to wait till following Wednesday prior to it lastly gets to my door, so still some even more finger twiddling to expect.

Update 14/11/2012: The consignment condition has actually currently relocated to 'Out for Delivery'. Fascinating that the shipment didn't appear to be in any kind of rush to move with Pudong and Arnhem hubs, yet the truth its come straight right into Exeter has aided get it out for delivery on the exact same day. I was expecting this to experience a Birmingham center, so great on TNT for having a much more direct link.
