Picked one up at Duarte Target in Socal. It was incredible- I went in at 9:30 an hour and a half after they opened and they still had them boxed up behind the counter- all 4 they got in. Only Premiums too. I went to Burbank Target at 8am and they had 4 that they were selling to people who had been waiting since before they opened.

It looks like they took the page down. It was showing the premium console in stock without a bundle. It allowed me to order one before it disappeared. I already received a confirmation email, though I expect the order will be cancelled.

Gamestop retail stores and Gamestop.com are ran seperately. A couple of people over at the xbox.com forums have called the customer service line at gamestop.com, and these orders are confirmed.
I got mine in within the first couple of minutes, so no more running from store to store. Pretty psyched.

Speaking of gamestop and preorders, has anyone had their preorders filled since the launch? I think i was number 70 or so and they fulfilled 50 at the launch. At least that's what I think I remember the guy telling me on the phone. I also think they were gonna call me when they had one for me. Obviously I didn't get a call yet.

Gamestop orders
People in slickdeals have confirmed that orders will be shipped but not in 24 hours. I don't know how much of that is true but I do know that they are still filling those bundle deals they had couple of days ago. Some guy was still in processing and he order his last thursday. I hope all the people that got in on the deal, gets it. Wish I did too.....=)

If you order directly from target website and apply a 10% code, it would have been a little over $800 including shipping and tax. Now there is a whole discussion if the Xbox360 was a core or premium system because the other bundle they have states that it comes with all the extra goodies.

and the weight is different too.
