Many people are claiming that there will be sleeping bag sales
My suggestion is that you go by the night before (late) and see if anyone is waiting outside – if no one is go back home for a few hours and head back later and check again – if no one else is in line then don’t get in line but if you get there and see a few people then just hop in – come prepared to hop out and camp out
It normally depends, like over where I live… (Bay Area, California) we have loads of tech geeks, and if it is a HOT product then there are people that camp out over night.
A Couple of hours in advance would be good, but it all depends on how bad you want the phone.
Here’s a comparison of the phone and it’s competitors which should let you decide whether or not to sleep out for it
Since you are in the Houston area, I highly suggest looking at the post in the link below. It’s my blog post that shows a few screenshots of BestBuy stock lists for various areas and should give you an idea of how many units will be available around you and also how many people will be rushing to get one in your area.
As for when to get there, you have to think that the general population doesn’t know much about the Pre, if at all. Your best bet is to check back by the store periodically and see if there are lines as well as calling the store to check if there has been any interest from other customers. Using the stock list posted, you can also see if there are other stores close to you that might have more than 10. Good luck!
You should call your local BestBuy store and ask them. If your BestBuy does not have the Palm Pre be prepared to go to another store to get your Palm Pre. Read this “Are you Prep-ared for the Palm Pre Launch” post for more info:
