Have read (not 100% sure) the amz preorder ship on Friday, so amazon wasn't the best way to get them day one

We monitor Target Stores for AirPods so you may check them on the site, we found some BeatsX *activity* from TG stores, so they could have some.
Best Buy hasn't been re activated for now, but could be if they have some of them.

Best bet for day one is Apple store and pick-up imho.
 
I have an Amazon preorder but if it's not actually showing "shipping" on Friday morning I'm placing an Apple Store order. I may swing by my local Apple Store Friday just to check but, if their inventory is anything like the AirPods launch, I doubt they will have more than a handful.
 
Using notifications and pick-up I think you can honestly hope to nail one day one.
Will likely depend on which time they go on sale.

I cancelled my amazon pre-order and picked it up from apple so I am wondering the same thing ^^.

I actually forgot I did a preorder from Amazon for the beats headphones. It still says we will let you know when it ships. I will probably end up canceling that preorder if it doesn't change. And try my luck somewhere else. I want to ft my hands on the beatsx to compare them to my airpods. But haven't had any luck locally.
