Hmm. I may be getting a 32 gig through a buddy of mine for the firesale price.

If I do get it, I'd be willing to let the 16 gig one I have (open and used for maybe a few hours or so) to one of you guys who couldn't get one.

Pretty sure I just got lied to at BB. Online it shows they have 16gb ones in stock. Went there and the guy was like I don't believe so. Asked him to check the computer anyways. Computer showed they had 1 unavailable that was an online order for pickup from the weekend and then it showed 2 available. He went and checked and said the computer must just be wrong. Probably employees holding them for themselves.

Definitely not pleased about it. Might go back later tonight if it is still showing and see if I can get someone different to look it up.

My ship date changed to 8/29, delivery date 9/1.

Also.. did anyone else have the credit authorization drop from their account? I'm a bit nervous about it.. but willing to wait it out and see if it comes through.

BB no longer so any stock. My charges haven't been canceled. So still holding out hope. However I am considering paying one of the craigslist deals of around 250 for a 32gb.

I would be patient if I were you. Good thing is that you have it on your c/c so you are safe...

That's the same that happened with mine. Once I got the email notification saying my order shipped, I was able to track it. My email came at the end of the day after the ship date. A little slow they are.

Preware is a must. 'Govnah' is the best for overclocking.

For games I recommend 'Quell' and 'Robotek'.

I really like 'Epicurious' for cooking/recipes.
