I have been looking at the Q as a way to carry only one device instead of a PDA and a phone.

I was in the local VZW store and was asking about buying one when they came out. The manager said "we don't know when we will get them, but we would rather you buy here than on line and we will call you when we get them".

So my question is this, do the stores get the phones early and hold them until release date or do they just get them whenever.

that what i was wanting to do, especially since this store has just opened and still has construction blocking the parking and entrance. They have no customers right now.

I just wanted to make sure that they "have them in hand" already or "would have them in hand" on the 5th. We sometimes get the shaft here in Hawaii due to shipping.
