I just checked tracking, mine is supposed to be here tomorrow. Stopped by the verizon store yesterday and picked up the HD dock, webtop adapter, vehicle mount, and case.

The sales rep was sympathetic that they dropped the ball on overnight delivery... but not enough to grab me one of the Bionics they had in the back when I asked if she would just give me one of those, and cancel the other order.

D'oh! Oh well, I tried :-D

Walked into store at 8am, only person there was me. Got the HD dock for 54.99, car mount 29.99 and otterbox for 29.99. I left a little after 830 and not 1 person came in after me looking for the phone, the staff was expecting more people.

Okay, I don't understand why the verizon store can't tell me if there are any Bionics available: "I'm sorry we can't divulge that information." I'm not driving out to a store only to find out there aren't any available.

Well, I ordered mine today and like I suspected it was shipped 2 day, so it wont be here until Friday. I'm thinking now maybe I should go check out Costco and see if they have any in tomorrow, but first wanted to know if I'll have any problems returning the one I ordered through Verizon. Will I have to pay a restocking feed or anything if it's not even opened?

Since you ordered the phone from Verizon already, it won't show in the system that you're eligible for an upgrade so Costco won't be able to sell you a phone at the discounted price. You'd have to wait for the phone to come, refuse the delivery, and then wait for it to make its way back to Verizon before your eligibility would be reset. I also have to wait until tomorrow for my phone to be delivered so I won't have it on release day.

Just got mine and sending this from it. Took like 10 minutes because they already had the phone set aside for me!

I was the first one to get it at the store I went to. Only problem is getting the 4g sim card to activate. I went ahead and left with the phone with no activation. He told me to call back at 10:30 if it doesn't work by then. He said it was a similiar problem when the thunderbolt came out.

I had this issue with the tbolt as you said. The reps need to refresh their systems for the activationg to go through, kinda reboot their systems. I don't know why this happens.

Are you coming from a 3G phone? If so, does that phone still work? I wouldn't wait until 10. There's a number you can call to complete the activation. I'll post it when I can find it.
