So, I know we've all got our fingers crossed that our orders will ship on Monday, October 7th and delivered on the 9th. But what if it doesn't? If you find out you're not going to get your phone until Thursday, October 10th...or later, will you cancel your online order and hope you can pick it up in the store instead?

If delivery date is after 10/10 I will not be happy but we won't know until it ships

Yeah, but what if Wednesday rolls around and Verizon verifies that it will be available in-stores the next day and you still haven't gotten a shipping confirmation. Will you cancel the online order and go pick it up in person on Thursday, or wait for the it to arrive in the mail on Friday...or later? And if it DOES ship on 10/10 via 2 day Air, it won't arrive til Monday, right?

Exactly. We have to wait and see. I won't be too upset even if it arrives in the mail on the 10th. But that's just me.

Considering my nearest store is a five minute drive and our doorbell is sooo hard to hear to begin with, if it doesn't ship by tommorow i might cancel. In fact i might call and cancel anyways because of the doorbell haha.

Yeah, I won't be upset either. But you will know by the end of the day on Tuesday! If you don't have a shipping confirmation with a tracking number by Tuesday night, then the best you could hope for is a shipping date of Wednesday (10/9) with a delivery date of Friday (10/11). If that happens, and it's available in stores on thursday (10/10), will you wait til Friday to get it in the mail or cancel the online order and try your luck in-store?

Lmao about the dootball. Hey if they ship it tomorrow and it arrives on the 9th, prepare yourself by leaving a note on the door for the FedEx guy saying the doorbell doesn't work good, please kick and knock the door as hard as you can, until someone answers the door. LOL

Or ill just write a note saying to leave it at the door followed by printed name and signature. Ive done it before because of the door bell and it always has worked because they steal my note and leave the box.

If I haven't received an email by Wednesday night, then yes I will definitely cancel my pre-order, and go into the store and grab it there.

I'll probably just hold onto the preorder. I work early in the morning until 3:30 or so and wouldn't be able to make it to a Verizon store until later in the afternoon anyway. Wouldn't want to risk the chance of not getting one just over a few days wait.

I took the morning off of work specifically to be the first in line at Verizon.

If it doesn't ship by tomorrow I'm canceling and getting it in the store. The only use of pre order is the possibility of getting it a day earlier.

My use of pre order is to not have the Verizon people open it and activate it. Its mine!

Hmmm...I'm really surprised by the number of people that don't plan on canceling their orders, even if they won't receive them until Friday or later!

However, unless I'm mistaken, there's no firm confirmation YET that they'll be available in-store on the 10th...is there?

All I know is if they announce that it will be a available in-store on the 10th, and my pre-order won't arrive until after the 10th (aka shipping on the 9th or later), I'm canceling my pre-order and will be at the store when it opens Thursday morning. The only reason I can see not doing that is if you were one of the lucky few that took advantage of the pre-order glitch that allowed you to keep unlimited data.

I personally will wait until Thursday and as long as I have received a tracking number for delivery that day I will be ok. If it isn't scheduled to be delivered on Thursday I will go into a store, purchase, and then cancel my order.

At least that is the plan right now.
