Just talked to my store - they received some. He wouldn't guarantee he could save one but said he put a black one aside for me (switching from silver, which was also nice). I'll call again to make sure they have them before running over there after work. He said everyone is asking for them (not sure I believe this ...) It may be that if they can get commission selling new ones, that's their preferred use of the inventory.

Just called 2 AT&T corporate stores in Miami. One said it would be a "long time before we will have replacements Note 7's". Asked him if he watched TV or used the internet stating stores would have phones this week. His reply is that he doesn't pay attention to the news that much.
The other store said they are getting them in today between 5 & 6 pm, but didn't know how many. Gave him my name so hopefully I'll have a new one tonight. Can't wait to see how much of a pain swapping the phone out will be.

Why does every store have different info? Some are swapping already. Others saying not till 21st, or 23rd or whenever. I went to two this weekend within walking distance (both corporate stores) and they had two different stories: one said it won't be for two weeks, the other said starting possibly today, but they hadn't received them yet as of yesterday.

I called the same store twice today and received 2 different answers. I blame the managers running the stores for not telling employees what to say regarding this issue. If they do not have the phones, that should be the answer. Telling a customer you have little knowledge of the issue with the Note 7 is just being stupid.

Just did my exchange in from my store - all local corp stores around my area (north west metro Atlanta) received them via FedEx today.

Details:
Made in Korea
Build Date: 9/9/2016
Black Box on the sticker (like every other picture out there) - no Blue "S"
IMEI check yielded the "Great News!" response

Immediate reaction is that the battery appears to be holding the charge much better than my old device. Until I get everything reset back (full data reset) - and functioning the way I want it - I can't make a full judgement call. I will say the device is also slightly less "laggy" than what I remember of setting up my original device.

Overall - happy that this is finally back to normal... :)

just got my coral blue N7 at the Walden Galleria Buffalo NY store. They got 15 phones in today and from what it looked like they may be accounted for already.
