Best Buy EVO Allotments?

So I just ordered my EVO from BestBuy today, and apparently I'm the 7th person on the 2nd wave (supposed to be coming in on June 9th). But the sales associate did say something interesting, that during their 1st wave, only 89 people ordered, and that they may possibly get more phones in the shipments for the 1st wave, and that those next on the 2nd wave would have dibs on any additional phones.

So I'm curious how their shipments go, whether they are allotted a certain amount of phones in their first shipment, or whether they submit how many people signed up for the first wave, and HTC ships them that exact number? Because I'm hoping that they get around 100 for their first shipment, cause since I'm 7th in the second wave, and that means I should be getting the 96th phone. Wishful thinking, or does anyone have some inkling of how the best buy works their pre-order magic?
