Where to find an Xbox360?

Where's the best place to buy an Xbox 360 in or around Chapel Hill, North Carolina? Or the internet?

I'm looking for an Xbox 360 for my brother's christmas present. Where can I find one in Chapel Hill, NC? Or would the internet be better? The $399 version is preferable.

if someone were a speculator, and could get one of these systems, how much would they be able to get for it if they sold it before say, christmas?

(let's assume for the moment that this speculator does not care about going to hell).

The price would probably hover $100 over the stock price, because of demand.

Best Buy, Walmart and Costco didn't presell their systems so they may have some. Walmarts that are open 24 hours a day started selling them at midnight, so they're probably cleared out by now.

Microsoft is planning regular shipments (weekly?) through Christmas so even if you lose out today you've got plenty of opportunities.

When the original Xbox came out, I managed to find one at Sears when all the computer, toy and game retailers were sold out.

Good luck.
