Release Date

Does anyone know when this tablet will be available for purchase? I read the story of how someone got one on exchange at Best Buy. My local BB has yet to have one on display.

I think it's over priced at $469.00, but intrigued about the 8.9" size. I tried a 7" Acer and thought it was too small. Sometimes my Transformer feels so wide it's uncomfortable to hold for extended periods. And my iPad just doesn't cut it at times. So this may just be the right size.

My local Best Buy in Milwaukee had 1 in the cage, however, it was not on display. They let me buy it. Size is excellent! Nice compromise between the 7" and the 10".

Comes with the full TouchWiz integration, which I happen to like.

They only had the 16GB Gray model.

I happened to like TouchWiz on my Fascinate too. While others were running LauncherPro or ADW, I stuck with TouchWiz.

I'm going to head to my Best Buy tonight and see if I can pick one up.

I went to best buy yesterday and saw 2 in the cage.... made the mistake of asking if it was for sale yet.... 5 min later he came back and said not until monday. Went back today with different people working and pointed to it in the cage and asked about it ... Then said i would buy it .... no problems ... waiting for a full charge but it looks like a great size.... now i will need to sell the Transformer......

I am new to android and I have a 8.9 and love it. If I run Launcher Pro or ADW, can I remove them and go back to base TouchWiz? I like touchwiz but I have nothing to compare it to

The Best Buy website will let you order the tablet and pick up in store. I've had mine since Monday that way. I saw no display for it in the store and none in the case so Im not sure why they are letting you order it online but they are.
