I seen it about a week ago at Walmart.  They told me they had an exclisive early release..apparantly so did other retail outlets, just not Verizon itself.  How funny! Whats even more amusing is how uninformed Verizon staff was..but of course anyone who has called tech support knows there are some really ignorant people on the other end of that phone..not that I'm bashing, cause there are some brilliant ones too.
