The WoW Online Store showing the irksome "Out of Stock" sign? Unable to pre-order The Burning Crusade?

World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade will fire up on launch date with Blizzard devs visiting four California retailers to autograph copies of the expansion. The stores will be open at midnight and line-up starts at 6:00 AM PCT, January 15 at each store simultaneously. It seems that the guys at Blizzard really enjoy midnight parties. Here's the list:

• Fry's Fountain Valley - 10800 Kalama River Ave, Fountain Valley, CA 92708
• Fry's Anaheim - 3370 E. La Palma Ave, Anaheim, CA 92806
