In related news, there is a lot of stir about Daniel Radcliffe and his full front nudity in "Equus" (that play that he is in).

I can't wait until July!!!!!
Regarding Daniel Radcliffe's new play....I say good for him. He's always gonna be known as Harry Potter if he doesn't start changing up roles now. He'll still always be know as Harry, but at least this will show his range. I can't believe the number of people that say their children will no longer be allowed to watch Harry Potter because of this...I hate stupid people.

I'm debating over whether I should pre-order my book & pick it up at midnight OR if I should just wait until first thing in the morning & go to Target at 8am when they open & buy it. I'm so confused over what to do!

Pre-order it from Amazon and they'll deliver it to you on the 21st - that way you avoid the obnoxious rush at the store. I just ordered my copy!!

Yeah, I pre-ordered mine kinda late and never expected it to arrive on the day but it did. That was awesome! We went to a midnight opening for the WoW expansion and I will never do it again. No product is worth that. We were there until almost 2 in the morning after arriving around 11:30pm.

Thats what I usually do, but I don't know where I'm going to be living in July in order to preorder 
Such a sad Harry Potter moment for me.

I tried. Unfortunately, I can't remember my log-in info so I requested that they email me my password and I still haven't received it yet. BOO!

The final Harry Potter book is already #1.. way before it's even being released.
The deluxe edition which is selling for nearly double the price of the standard edition is the number two seller on Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.com.
Just six months to go and counting...

I'll be at Walmart again (I live in a small town) at midnight to get it. I'm hoping I don't have to work on Saturday so I can spend the day reading!
I'll probably start re-reading all the books about a month before - or maybe the beginning of June.

Harry will be showing more than just his range!

I thought about pre-ordering it but every site said 2-3 day delivery (unless I wanted to pay like 20 bucks extra for overnight). Nothing on the sites "guareteed" I would have it the 21st. So I said forget. I'll just go to Target at 8am, or hell Walmart the night before.

That's my problem too. My friends keep saying that I'll get the book the same day but I just don't see how this is possible. I preordered mine from Borders for in-store pick-up instead.

I've done this in the past and been really happy with their service. It works as long as its not a huge pain in the butt to get to Borders.

I've not read all 45 pages of this thread, so if someone has already said this, forgive me.
I just started rereading the series. I probably jumped the gun a little, b/c I'm sure I'll finish way before July 21. But, that's beside the point. I'm wondering if Rowling has provided us a little foreshadowing about who dies in book 7. In HP&SS, the first time Harry hears the password into the Gryffindor commons, it's "Caput Draconis". As in, Draco is Caput? Just a theory, but I couldn't help but wonder when I read that.

Last time I pre-ordered mine and it was delivered on Saturday the day of release. I pre-ordered this one and it said the shipping date was the day before release.
Do you have any idea how pissed people would be if they couldn't pre-order it and have it arrive on the day? The shipping companies would never hear the end of it.....
