Does anyone know, (store employee's for example)
when the second shipment will arrive. As european i have friend
trying to pick one up in Boca, florida, but just in case they wont be able to
when will the 2nd shipment arrive?

Probably not for a few days, at least. Nintendo would be insane to miss out on Black Friday.

well they are coming back to holland 7th of december.
Still hope they can pick one up on sunday,
i heard there best chance is at Kmart, best buy, walmat or costco
Maybe toysRus?

Not too sure about TRU. Wal-Mart's a good bet though, they get a lot of systems in. Just make sure you get there hours early and bring something to sit in and some entertainment.

When I waited in line for the GC, at 8:00, there were about 70 people in line, and 56 Cubes given out. They should hand you a ticket saying that you waited in line until that point around then, and you can go home and nap or whatever until 12:00 when you redeem it and buy the system. The process could have changed, though.

Well everyone knows KB Toys really is that swift with game stuff...we still don't have GTA:SA or Halo 2. But we are indeed getting the DS. My manager got an email that it would be coming in. But KB Toys put some weird rule on the sale. We are only allow to sell two on November 21st, the rest have to be saved until November 26th. But people can't pre-order from us, so it might be worth a try. Nobody expects us to have anything new...with good reason.

Problem is: I'M not in the states, my neighbours are picking it up and i don't think i can force him to go to the shop at 7am, he will probably go around opening time.
Which store has the best chance around that time?

O and they don't have a KBtoys in tha area.

I've not heard anything to that effect, yet
We got a grand total of 4 extras, we had 26 reservations for our little store.

Its funny cause we have display units, yet we can't sell any to people walking in the store :lol

I've also heard that second DS shipments aren't coming in until a ridiculously later time (e.g., Christmas). Typical Nintendo fashion, really.

I've got my system reserved at GameStop, but $150 is a lot for me to plunk down at the moment.
