If you ordered an iPad after Apple moved delivery dates to April 12 from April 3, your gadget may be winging its way from China, according to a Tuesday report.

The Apple news site 9to5Mac is reporting customers are receiving shipping notification. Electronics retail giant Best Buy will also receive another batch of iPads in time for an April 11 sales event, the site also reports.


On Monday, an analyst questioned the validity of sales numbers for the iPad’s launch. Apple announced 300,000 iPads were sold on Saturday, April 3, a number far below those expected. Wedge Partners analyst Brian Blair told investors the Apple-provided figure did not include a week of online sales that followed the company’s decision to push deliveries back to April 12.
