I agree. With all the online hype, one would have expected the stores to be promoting them. It was almost as though they were embarassed to put them on the shelves. Its entirely possible though that they were saving them for people who were 'in the know' rather than letting the uneducated masses pick them up like just another magazine. Who knows? Maybe it was brilliant marketing on their part since it appears that most stores are already sold out..or am I giving store managers too much credit?
