@zombiejcI very calmly expressed my frustration to the rep on the phone, and that I was #178 on the waiting list the day my profile switched to 'in progress'... but he only repeated: "we are not giving out the phones until next week". I asked 'when' ...
I just called a location in Ottawa. They said they have some SGSII phones in, but they aren't 'selling them until next week'... and that includes for those who reserved. I guess I have to be a little more patient... sigh.
