FYI: Kindle Fire HD 8.9'' now available at Best Buy for pickup

I was going to order from Amazon, but saw the "shipping December 3rd" message. So I just happened to look on Best Buy's website and it showed "Available now". I was thinking, that can't be right, so called the store to confirm it and sure enough they had it.

I drove down there and they had piles of boxes available. Picked up a 16GB Fire HD 8.9 for myself. What a stark difference to the fiasco that Google launches are. Haha.
 
I got it at Best Buy myself. Better than waiting til Dec 3rd. Now that we have to pay tax on amazon, the price is the same as retail stores.
