I ordered online but canceled and just swung by my local (West LA) store in the morning to pick one up. I called late last night to ask about stock and was told they couldn't tell me anything about future products (even though the website/online orders were up and a couple hours later they were advertising a "fitness launch event" in the store the next). When I dropped by the store, it was predictably empty (and it took some time to flag down someone to help me, which never happens at the Apple Store), but I got a chance to make sure on my sizing and picked up the device. I set my Band up in front of the store (took about 10 minutes) and have been wearing it all day. Everything seems to work pretty well so far, although I haven't stressed tested it...
I'm planning to do the same soon. There are three Microsoft stores here in the Atlanta area. I'd just rather do just about anything other than fight traffic to get to one.
