Worse. I am number ONE on the pre-order list at the BestBuy nearest me (Tulsa Midtown OK Store #762), but they told me this morning that they aren't sure that they'll have ANY on launch day. Actually, what they told me first was "the launch day is being moved." When I said flatly that was b.s. they backpedaled and said, "that's what we were told to tell anyone who calls or asks, but *if* we get one, you'll get it."
BigFlippinWhoopee. What's the point of having a pre-order system if you can't fulfill the pre-orders? It only makes you look bad.
I decided last year I wanted to replace my Blackberry Bold, but I decided to wait until was out of contract in February, rather than pay AT&T an early termination fee. Then in Feb. I decided to wait for the iPhone 4 to launch this summer. Then in June I ordered an iPh4 -- and got it on launch day -- but sent it back, because by then I'd read about the Droid X. So I decided to wait three more weeks and get a DX. Well, if my new smartphone doesn't show up on Thursday and bake bread and slice it, I'm going POSTAL on somebody. The dorks in blue polos better wear kevlar on Thursday if they can't fulfill the order they made.
