    Pre-ordered my Playbook in-store way back in March. However, the store rep told me that my pre-order was good for all models of the playbook. Now I've come across the bullet point on Best Buys website saying all in-store pre-orders are only good for the 16GB version....wtf?

    How many 64GB versions will Best Buy be carrying on launch day? And with the anticipation of its' release, when does Best Buy plan to open its doors?


    Thanks!

    There was an earlier post where someone said 7am but I'd check with your local store to see what their timings will be to make sure.

    I'd imagine most stores would open at their normal time. I don't think this is expected to be a big enough launch to warrant opening early. Maybe in some parts of Canada, but I'd be surprised if many stores opened early. I could be completely wrong though.

    Probably the same time they open every day. Call to make sure.

    I pre-ordered a 16gb in store at Best Buy in Denton, TX then went back and changed it to 64gb with no problems. As of this morning they had not received any to sell tomorrow. They are opening at normal time - 10am

    Best Buy - Computers, Video Games, TVs, Cameras, Appliances & More

    They will not tell you how many are in stock but it will tell you when they open! My store has them already in the back room for sale tomorrow unless you want to pay $10,000

    Well - the other Best Buy that I checked with (that I don't have a pre-order with) has them in stock, but only the 16 and 32 gb. With Best Buy being the "it" store for the launch - they should have the 64 gb. If the 64 gb are not available tomorrow then they should not have put them on the pre-order list. Not going to be happy!

    Best Buy originally was only taking preorders instore for the 16, But they changed that about 2 weeks after the initial announcement. They now take preorders in store for all 3

    Theres 3 different SKU's for each model -

    Sku 2327141 for the 16
    Sku 2507224 for the 32
    Sku 2507233 for the 64
