no where. i was all over SD today searching 4 it. just pre ordered from GS
The demand for it is so crazy that I don't think anyone in the US is going to be able to get it form a store until mid January. However if your still hopeful and need a hit list these are a few places that seem like they will be carrying it.
-Best Buy
-Game Stop
-Fry's
-Office Depot
-Staples
-Microcenter
The search is based off south Texas, but I think you have all/most of these stores. Just remember, if you do get lucky, you might have a long drive ahead of you to get to the place with them in stock. My search radius was 50 miles at one point.
Wow, thanks fellas.

All the stores will be open @ 8:00am in the Houston area, so if you already pre-order you will be good to go! anywhere else opening earlyer than that?

All corporate stores will for sure be opening at 8AM. This was from a sales rep reading right out of the E3D documents.

Mine is a corporate store, hopefully my guy was misinformed. Wouldn't be the first time.
I preordered mine at Best Buy since thats where I got my Nexus but Im gonna swap it out for the 3D. Im hoping they get quite a few of them since I only have til the 30th to swap.
If you are in Houston try the Meyerland BB, they usually order a bunch of Sprint phones.
Good luck with that!

any word if Best Buy or radio shack will be opening early as well?
Finally ready to pull the trigger on the Prime, and I can't find one *anywhere*. Does anyone have a line on where they can be found? I tried both Sacto and Roseville Fry's, Best Buy in Stockton and Elk Grove, not sure where else to look: ideas?
Thanks much if anyone has a line.
You are in the same boat and area I am. I have all but resigned myself to waiting for fry's or best buy to get it.

I'm in Sac too, but I'm on the Amazon waiting list... Have you tried calling local GameStops? Some people on the forums got lucky and found one in stores. Some people have had luck just stalking the Newegg/TigerDirect/BestBuy pages until they show they are in stock again. Personally I'm sticking to Amazon waitlist, hopefully won't be much more than 2-3 weeks.
Hadn't thought about Gamestop, thanks both of you.
Fyi the Closest tablet gamestop is in vacaville.
I would check out frys every day just call and ask. When the tf101 had availability issues that's where I was able to find one.
I lucked out on bestbuy.com and got mine on wednesday, just still looking for a dock.

Ok. So, I don't know if this has been posted already but I looked and didn't see anything. If it has been posted, MODS please delete.
I just found out why I couldn't find the gray dock on Best Buy's website. It does not show up if you search for anything that has "Transformer or Prime" in it. You have to search for "Asus portable dock."
However, they do have it and it is in stock now. I just placed my order finally!

Your welcome. I'm just glad that this thread helped someone.

Picked one up yesterday. They had to get the last one from the back and confirm that they are not holding it for anyone. Sales guy said that every time they get those, people descend upon the store like locusts and sweep them up lol.
ugh. showed 1 ready for in-store pickup in my area. ordered it and canceled my amazon order. Now I get an email that says the dock isn't available at the location and to call bestbuy. They dont have any in the phoenix area at all and the soonest they'll get them is the 29th. Now cheapest on Amazon is $277.
Thanks, I cancelled my Amazon and ordered from Best Buy. It will arrive the day after I get my 64GB Prime.
I had posted another thread that indicated that 384 primes were in the BBuy warehouse in St. Louis. I made a purchase on the 20th and will get the prime on the 26th. Dock is also in stock. I do think they are getting a mass amount of primes at the stores in the very near future.
Has anyone preordered their Evo from Radio Shack? Either online, or in-store? Preordered mine in-store (same place I preordered my OG Evo). The customs hold really fubar'ed this launch.
I did and spoke with 2 different local stores today and they both told me they had a "webmail" today saying they'd have phones to cover the pre orders tomorrow. I called 2 stores because the one I preordered from had zero info before today but I was suprised when they also knew what was going on and that my phone would be delivered to them by FedEx between 10 and 11. They did also mention they were only selling the pre orders until the official launch had happened. I guess I'll know tomorrow if they were right but the girl I talked to at one of the stores read me the communication she called the "webmail", so I'm confident it willl be there.

I guess if true we will hear something tomorrow. I spoke with the manager at the one I'm dealing with, and he mumbled something about a webmail as well. He was very vague as to what it was about. I'm a regular customer there (only place that sells electronics parts, and solder in the area). Hopefully he'll do me right.
Going too radioshack on my break to see what's going on. This is crazy I haven't heard anything from those clowns

I don't think you'll find out much. But you never know. This launch is one of the most convoluted, and messed up launches I ever witnessed.

I did see a tweet about RS getting their "pre-order fulfillment" today, and are supposed to be distributed starting today as well. Again all rumor..

I spoke with my local (Rancho Cordova, CA.) radio shack yesterday (5/24) and they told me to call them today around 2. Man I hope they have the phone, I already gave my EVO 3D to my wife and I down graded to the OG EVO.....LOL
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
does anybody know if the Radio Shack stores are supposedly just getting enough EVOs in to cover preorders? I only ask, because yesterday I stopped at a RS, and they said nobody placed a preorder in their store, but yet put me 1st on the list for when they do get a shipment. guess I can only hope. thanks to everyone for providing info in this thread.

Yeah just enough for pre orders, so if there is a pixel out or something we are **** outta F ing luck. This whole situation was handled like ****. If nobody pre ordered at that store, then they are getting 0 in. You gotta either wait until launch day, or go from radio shack to radio shack trying to find an eVo that was pre ordered than canceled.

Just got the call. Mine is in and they are actually letting me pick it up. wow about time! Just gotta wait til I'm done work now.can't wait! ! !

Got mine at 4:30 today... Apparently according to the store manager I was the only person to pickup their pre-order (they had several pre-orders but when they tried to contact these folks no one has responded). So they may have several phones available.
got my phone today aswell, radioshack called me and the first thing they told me is that I would be the first one in my city to get it lol..not even the sprint retail store had it..and when i traded lines(because the upgrade was from my dad) the guy took the phone to the back to show his boss and some employes haha
Got mine around mid day today they got my phone in and called me.I am happy now

Got my phone on the 25th and I was that store's only pre-order. I also got a free 32gb SD card with it. They gave me a choice of a $25 accessory and the funny thing was is that I HAD to spend all of it to get the free accessory. So I snagged a SD card that was 20% off with the purchase of the phone, but that didn't reach $25 so I snagged a 3' 3.5mm audio cable for in the truck. I thought it was a pretty nice deal.
Just called to see how my preorder is going and the guy told me NO EVOs are currently in the USA and are still in customs. With ignorance like this working at BB ill never get my phone...

Well I just preordered last Thursday. I think it maybe a tad premature to start complaining.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Check this out, live in a city called Oxnard in California. I've been calling stores looking for the phone. Today a best buy in another city, Thousand Oaks, said they had 2, which was perfect, since me and my dad both are making the upgrade. We drove an hour and a half away through memorial day traffic to go get them. (We both thought it was too good to be true.) Well we finally made it there safely, with both our moods great, especially since we've been waiting for this phone like crazy. We walk into the store (Best Buy Mobile) and are ready to make our purchases.
Guess what... The fukkface was confused with the O.G. model. They at minimum could have gave me a $10 BB Card, but no, they were instantly rude. This could have easily ruined my day. (which I think it did, but I'm in denial of being angry. LOL)
To answer your question, I do not know exactly, but I believe they are still periodically being checked by customs, but not held like crazy like they were before. My local Sprint store told me my pre order would be in by Wednesday.
