JDMiPhoner managed to score one from his local Wally World a full four days early, and he's been kind enough to unbox it, boot it up and give us a few first impressions on video."</em></p><p><em></em></p><p><object width="480" height="385" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/fICRaoihuq0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fICRaoihuq0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object></p><p>So I guess I'm happy I live in a country where money talks and <em>official release dates</em> walk, as evidenced by this lucky man's ability to pick up an HD2 ahead of the March 24 official drop date. He has the first "official" consumer unboxing, so feel free to take a look and further solidify your HD2 want or justify your HD2 "skip" status!</p>

It is a great looking phone and it is cool that he scored one early, but I guess there are unboxings and then there are recordings of a guy opening his phone package. This was the latter.

But, on the other hand, Jason it might be "more real" if you flung stuff around and had a wicked knife to open the boxes too.
