Thanks for the links. One bestbuy store in Miami I went to said they had them in stock online. I head over there and the employee says they have them, but they were reserved at first, but those people cancelled so I could buy one but I had to purchase whatever the original "pre-orderer" ordered with it.
He tried to offer me a 64gb att, with some BS protection plan and hdmi cords.
I told him no way and he went and "asked" his manager and ended up having to buy it with a smartcover. Worst case is I go back tomorrow and return the smartcover.
Best buy is a bunch of scammers. making people buy extra unnecessary accessories.
