How are you buying Droid?

My first choice is in the store, so I can inspect it for defects before I leave. But Verizon seems to launch everything online first, so that will probably be the route I go.
I've heard Verizon posted pictures of you up in every single store in Seattle to watch for returns... any truth behind this?
in the store, my friend always helps me out with my verizon stuff. plus i like to check it out and make sure it's setup and working before i leave the store.
and 99% i'm really impatient, and since it's launching on a friday, there's no way i'd get it shipped to me before monday. the store being like 4 blocks from home, i'm going to go when they open and pick one up. hopefully with a home dock.

They launched the Touch Pro 2 on a Friday too, September the 11th, nonetheless. I really didn't understand that decision. Anyway for those of you who order through customer service, they do have a Saturday delivery option for $20 if you specifically request it.
And no Jeremy, I am not the Verizon "Can you hear me now?" guy.
I just got my Tour as part of the employee phone program, and since I'm within 30 days, I'm going to eat the restocking fee and setup my return on Monday. Local store isn't an option for me, as employees have to deal specifically with employee accounts.
I work next door to a Verizon store and will get one on my lunch. There are pros and cons to each purchase method. Online will likely give you an instant $100 rebate and in store you may have to mail-in rebate for a $100 debit card. At least this is similar to what's being done for the Storm 2.
Voted Best Buy...
Pre-order, instant rebate, and a $50 best buy gift card thrown in...can't beat that.

I just did a pre-order at BB, and got the $50 GC, but I thought that the GC went toward the purchase of the Droid. What am I missing?
I'll head to Verizon store. I went to BB last night and they had no idea what I was talking about. I'd rather just go to the Verizon store so I can get the correct discounts and contract stuff. I'll let my wife handle the rebate nightmare.

Thats what I thought too but we are getting conflicting info on these boards. I'm gonna call Best Buy tomorrow.
Do you have to go to a BestBuy store to preorder? Or can you do this online? Or both maybe
I went in to the store. Was completely painless. Just filled out a form w/my name, address, and phone# and paid $50... + tax for some reason.Do you have to go to a BestBuy store to preorder? Or can you do this online? Or both maybe
Took my GC and reciept and left.
Take a look at the comments on this page of Android Central. Looks like the $50 GC they made you pay for is not a rebate but can be used towards the purchase of the Droid. Still a good deal with the instant rebate and all.

Strongly considering this option as well on Verizon's website. I called Verizon today and they said the $100 rebate would be instant online. And you can get free overnight shipping. Only downside is since it's available on a Friday you'll have to wait till Monday for Fedex delivery. Don't know if I can wait that long. LOL
