No rumor.  The dealer opened his doors at 10 am Monday, and I was first in.  It wasn't in the store proper, but was in their warehouse.  I was first on the list for when it came in at 5 pm; at 5 pm, I was the first to get it.  I gather I was at least one of the first in central Ohio to have it.

Now, if I could only convince myself to take off the shrink wrap.  I dunno, but it seems to me there's a greater than even chance that Apple will (shamefacedly) announce 7.0.1 within a couple weeks...what would that make a shrink-wrapped 7.0 package?  Worth having as a memento?  I think maybe so...
