Waiting here in line for my iPad and it is 45 degrees out (Thanks Steve) and I am kept warm by my blankets and the bottom of my MacBook. Last night before I went to sleep my wife asked me why I needed to get on line early, I tried to explain - but she did not get it. However it is per the email below that makes me remember why it is I am in line. Looks like not all are going to get their iPad's that pre-ordered them for shipment today.

Hi Rob,

Just got the notice today that UPS will not deliver my iPad until Monday instead of on Saturday. This in spite of the fact that on the Apple website they guaranteed delivery by April 3rd when I placed my order.

Both Apple and UPS lost credibility with me over this one. There are three Apple Stores in Honolulu. I could have and would have gone to any of them to pick up my iPad if Apple had mentioned that delivery to my house was not guaranteed.

Place my vote in the very disappointed column.

Aloha and keep up the great work on your Podcast,

Will B
Honolulu, HI

If you have received notice that your iPad is not being delivered today as promised - please let us know in the comments below.

Update: 4/3/10 2:03 PM Central From Will B:

Hi Rob,

Well, I guess the notification from UPS was just insurance in case they could not make the Saturday delivery, but the UPS truck was at my house by 8:30 AM on Saturday after all, even before the Apple Store opened. That's more like what I expect from Apple.

Enjoy your iPad. Look forward to hear yours and the experiences of your listeners.

Aloha, Will B.
