I called my local B&N today (we don't have a Borders up here) to make 
sure that the book would be there for me on Friday night.  They said the 
1 copy I had ordered would be there.  When I asked if it were possible 
to throw another book in there (In the last 2 weeks my husband has 
become a HP addict too LOL!) they told me they weren't sure.  They said 
that they could only order a certain number of copies and those who 
placed their orders weeks ago, like myself, would for sure get one; 
however, the other copies would go in order to the ppl who had ordered 
them later but in the order that the orders were placed.  She told me 
that if there were any extra copies left AFTER they had filled all the 
orders that it would be no problem, but as of 10am this morning my 2nd 
copy was dead last on the list. LOL!

I'm pretty sure the Saturday delivery for the amazon.com thing ended 
yesterday but you still might be able to get a copy delivered on 
Saturday if you did something like next day air and pay and outrageous 
shipping fee.  Hopefully your B&N ordered more copies than mine did.  I 
live in a pretty small town so that could be part of the "problem".
