I got the last one at my Local Compusa, since I wanted it before Christmas. The sales guy was a bit odd - he kept trying to get me to spend $65 on a protection plan in case I dropped it and said that this was 'new technology' from Nokia. I had to say no about 5 times. Spifs are fun, but annoying to customers.
Anyway, the box was in the back of the store somewhere and it took him a while to track down - and was a bit beat up - and he took great pains to point out to me that it was factory sealed with a sticker (actually two). I felt compelled to check it out in the car before leaving the parking lot and found that all the pieces were in it, but jumbled around, and the 'sealed' sticker easily came on and off. The screen of the unit itself had dust on it, which has never been true of any other 'factory sealed' device I've purchased.
The plan seems clear - sell only through CompUSA until Jan6th, then ship online orders. CompUSA's post-xmas return date is Jan 7th, which aligns nicely with the online ship date (if you're CompUSA).
