Got mine after I almost walked away because the chick from the Apple store announced that they were way understocked and that they had barely enough for the people who pre-ordered. She said to come back at 3pm but added that it was still highly unlikely that they would have any more even at that time. She drooled on about some plane getting stuck in a snowstorm in Texas (a snowstorm in Texas???), and she must have turned away over 50 people.
It was quite hilarious because come 9:15am, both the pre-paid line and the walk-up line had nearly disappeared and I was leaving the store with mine at 9:30. On the way back to my house, I drove by the store and there were no longer any customers. It was only 9:45am haha...
(I hope the folks down in TX are alright with all that snow...)
