FYI: I went to bestbuy today and they have it on display and you can actually play it. I played Call of Duty 2 and it looked awesome!

Funny note: Walmarts across the country have had it for a few weeks... but for some reason the wireless protocol that the controller uses causes major interference with the outdated wireless system that Walmart uses in their stores... So, they are all just sitting there... not turned on lol
the controller looked cool ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)
I'm excited to get mine!

you can count on Ebgames and Software ETC to be open for sure at midnight... so prolly only game orientated stores like them. A few bestbuy employees already told me they werent going to open at midnight, or even early ![[Eek!]](eek.gif)
and they -still- dont know how many units they will have... but its MS, and if you judge by the original xbox launch, there should be plenty

I knew they were working on a fix, and were supposed to have it out soon. I guess Mississippi must be the low man on the totem pole

Best Buy in the Colma Shopping Center is opening at Midnight and they were also taking pre-orders if you agreed to buy a bundle package. I got one, but I don't know if they're still doing it. I'm sure EB and Gamestop have pretty much sold all there units ahead of time. Target is on a first come first serve basis. Good Luck ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

I'm looking forward to the new 'n' protocol... faster, more secure, backwards compatable, and... from what Iv'e read, even able to support a/b/g/n protocols on the same network at the same time.

Not a bad idea I can do without one for a while and make a little $$$ at the same time.
