Since we first heard about Florida going Slim with its PS3s, we’ve gotten numerous reports abut the console showing up on retail shelves in Best Buys and GameStops across these 48 contiguous states. We’ve also heard whispers that brick-and-mortar Sony Style locations are getting shipments and will be unleashing to the masses soon after — not to mention Amazon’s still promising at least some deliveries for tomorrow. Our calls to Sony haven’t been returned yet, but it seems like the release date now is more or less “as soon as your local electronics store gets a shipment.” Another shot of the boxes in the wild after the break, and let us know below if and where you’ve managed to spot one!

[Thanks to everyone who sent these in!]
