Popped into my local VZW looking for a black 8x this morning and had the pleasure of playing around with their 2 display Lumia 820s. I was waiting for them so I decided to tweak the tile layout to make them look more appealing(I can't be the only one that does this...).
Regarding the 8x - manager took my name and number and said he had expected some in this AM and would give me a call when they came in. Their system said there are only 2 stores in my region(Midwest) with 8x's in inventory (Bismark and somewhere in MN).
Regarding the demo Microsoft Surface on display - the manager said he had set it up this AM and that VZW will be selling them soon. I was surprised because 1. I've never actually seen one and 2. I thought they were just in Microsoft stores at the moment. The demo version was booting up and I wasn't able to actually use it but, when a 8x comes in, I plan to spend a bit of time with it and decide whether to get one or wait for a pro.
That's my report and I hope you guys had better luck this morning.
