Most likely they will email Friday so you can get it that day. I didn't have any luck in the past getting it early with best buy

No news on mine yet either, but like others have said, I really didn't expect anything till Friday, or maybe Thurs night.

If you want you could get on best buy online chat and talk to a mobile rep! I have talked to them a few times to check on my order and they said it was "awaiting inventory" Im assuming theyll actually get them in store today or tomorrow, but either way we will most likely have to wait til friday!

i preordered the Epic 4G on got it on launch date.

Good good. I just really dont want to miss out on the phone on friday! Even though i wouldnt be able to pick it up until after 7pm.. Do they email you the day before you can pick up to let you know so you can plan ahead? Or do they email you same day?

My wife got a One X through Best Buy that she pre-ordered. I don't remember when the email came, but I know she got it on launch day. I work early morning on Friday, and just a few blocks away from the Best Buy I ordered from, and hopefully will be getting done right about the time they open. I sure that will be the longest morning I've worked in a long time, but at least I should be playing with my shiny new One not too long after I get off.

Yeah i was really hoping to get it during my work day to tinker with it around the slow periods! Its going to be a long day as i get off at 6 but i had something to do on thursday which i blindy changed to friday at 630 forgetting that i was going to pick up my phone on the way back from work.. maybe i will try to leave a bit early

Online rep couldn't find my order. Told me to call 800 number.

If you ordered in store the only way to look up your order is to call the store. When I did the online chat the rep knew that and called the store for me without me even asking!

why are you even calling? Preordered in-store, you'll get it on launch day if you preordered early enough.

I just wanted to guarantee they would have it in store! I talked to the online rep and she called for me so i never really asked her to do it. Just waiting for my email..
