Arrived at 1 of our Verizon Stores at 7:40am only 11 people in line ahead of me! I was customer 009, they opened the doors at 7:50am, passed out a form, the first 5 people in line entered at 8:00am sharp, I was in the second group, I purchased, activated and out by 8:25am!

It beat waiting for the FedEx guy to arrive at 2:00pm! Verizon was well organized and were getting people in and out quickly!

All I can say is A M A Z I N G..oh and I love the white iPhone 4S!

I was just about to post the exact same thing. Nice idea, just bad timing. Good luck on the 14th though.
