I got a call from my local Radio Shack where I placed my pre-order to set up an appointment to pick it up. I asked the sales rep how many pre-orders they got and he told me they only got 6. I'm pretty sure you should be able to buy one somewhere on the 31st, and if not, like someone else said, just wait until Sep 2nd and all the "reserved" phones that go unclaimed will be up for grabs.
