Best Buy to Have Xbox 360 Console Dec 18

A (supposedly) leaked insider document from Best Buy shows they are stockpiling 360 consoles to go on sale on December 18th.
A scanned copy of this document is linked below, and it is not verified, but does seem legit.
Here's the juice:
"Hold All Xbox 360s for Dec. 18 Ad
The next Xbox 360 shipment arrives in stores between Dec. 11 and 16. All units need to be held for Sun., Dec. 18."
Best Buy stores are also told not to take pre-orders, force bundle purchases, create waiting lists or hold the product for customers or employees.
They are also instructed to not hold a midnight or early opening.
There you have it! Those of you who haven't yet snagged a 360, here's your chance. Be at Best Buy early for their store opening on Dec. 18.

TARGET HAS XBOX 360
December 17th, 2005 at 12:16 pm
Launch Night i had to wait from 10 o’clock the night before into the next morning at 8 a.m. when the Best Buy opened. And I still didn’t get my 360 because I tried to pay with a credit card without my mom present…So here I am again going out around 10 tonight to wait all night again but I’m bringing cash this time.

I live in Richmond, VA, and everyone knows about the Best Buy thing in the am. Loosing hope of getting one at all before xmas for my son.

Our Target did not get theirs in here.

Just called my local Best Buy and a line has already started outside. It’s only 4pm here and it’s going to get down to 33 degrees tonight. Sounds like fun…
