What city are you in? (I'm in Vancouver).
Just took a look - the 4 Apple stores closest to me all have the 64GB unit in stock today.
Got a tip for us?

I'm in the US. I tried the Apple store. And it says that my 3 nearest stores are out of stock. So is Best Buy etc. All the local retailers that carry the Apple TV are out of stock in my area also. And god knows when my order will ship with Apple. Cause it hasn't changed from preparing to ship. So i was hoping to get lucky and walk in somewhere. And pick one up.
Hopefully it's just that the Apple Stores haven't updated their inventory yet. Check their hours - they may be doing that just before they open (not how I would run a store, but I've seen stranger things).
Check your stores inventory again, mine just updated all 4 stores around me and they have them in stock for today.
Hey for those who use Apple Pay, did the Apple TV charges dropped agai?
my package is out for delivery today but my charge dropped from the bank a second time and I know Apple Pay has been giving me issues with payments because their authorization window expires after a certain period if the window is more than a week.

Is anyone finding these available in stores other than Apple today? My nearest Apple Store is over 2 hours away, so I was checking my local Best Buy, Target, Walmart, etc. and they all act like release date isn't until Tuesday 5/25.
Bestbuy.ca isn't available yet (no ETA, just says sold out, even though their banner at the top of the page says "Available Now!"), Walmart.ca is saying "Ships by May 31"
Damn thats unlucky. I ordered within a minute of it going live and received mine today.
I been preparing for two days now through Apple. I managed to snag one from Verizon overnight shipping. I had to pay $20 to do that. But I should have it tomorrow. And did a web chat with a representative who agreed to give me a $20 credit on my bill as a courtesy. So even though Apple didn’t come through. Verizon should have one for me tomorrow.
The Apple store is too far for me. I mentioned this in another thread. But Apple still has me preparing for shipping. Even they said they didn’t know why it still says that 2 days later. But i found one at Verizon. Overnight Saturday shipping was $20. And when I spoke to someone from Verizon. They gave me a credit for the shipping of $20 on my bill. As a courtesy to me. Even though they didn’t have to. So hopefully I have one by tomorrow. UPS says Saturday delivery for me by noon. So I will see.
Offff 2 hours is rough, just got mine delivered after the driver took forever, as usual I’m like the last in his route despite the notion that he drives by street 2 times earlier LOL. Sometimes Apple stores can hold merch for you if you call them, done it before but it was luck. Either way I think people are mainly upgrading their remote than their Apple TV’s so you might be in luck! It wasn’t like the 2017 version that was out for 2 weeks after release
