I called the local store again and started by saying I just wanted to confirm that my order was available for pickup after checking with the phone number and their automated system it said "ready for customer pickup". He said release is tomorrow and I told him others are getting the phone from...

It has moved off pre-order on the website. goodness

To add insult to injury the website says release is today!!! I am going in after work, it will happen haha

I like this plan! I didn't get the email but how are some stores now going to hand them out and some aren't? The blame before was placed on Samsung not allowing stores to sell. That has CLEARLY gone out the window now so this is easily Best Buys problem at this point. I have gone through the...

Just got off the phone with my local Best Buy. They are not releasing today because it was "only in certain circumstances". I pushed him and he admitted it was because of the email that people received but they are not following and are not releasing until tomorrow. They are also not opening...

Man, you all had me excited when I saw that first post about emails going out saying pickup is ready. what a roller coaster!

Looks like I jumped the gun. No go today apparently haha

Haven't seen anything come through yet for me but it is only 9AM here in Denver. Hoping I get something when they open so I can go after work!!

Hoping to get a call today from BB to at least set up my pickup on Friday. Not holding my breath though since for the N7 I didn't get a call at all and just showed up at 10AM when they opened. We will see what happens, Friday is normally a pretty slow day at work but I have been seeing my...

Online orders through BB seem to be ok as well but you may have missed the first round. Verizon direct seems to be the most likely and quickest way to get it at this point.

There was only one person that said Verizon gave their phone so I am not sure that is accurate. I don't think any place has been cleared to release the phones for pickup. Doesn't make a lot of sense because if you clear people to ship so the phone will "reach the customer by the release date"...

You working today? I appreciate you keeping me in the loop.

Here is to hoping today is the day BB and Samsung get together and let in-store pickup happen!

From a business perspective, I would think it makes a lot of sense to release before this Iphone comes out but I question if there is business people in the decision maker's roles at BB. Here's to hoping!

So still no realease? Hopefully corporate will take their Monday seriously and move this forward! Case came Friday and I am so ready for my phone!
