I see that ordering online there are discounts that may not be offered in the stores....Appreciate your help...

The only difference to ordering online vs at the store, is that you get the $100 rebate instantly online, where you need to submit the rebate from the store.
I have ordered my last two 3 phones online for that reason alone. The only issue that I had is the car charger that came with the car dock that I ordered with the Droid X broke after 1 week of use, and I just brought it to the corporate store that is about 5 miles from my house and they replaced it.
When you order online, you get a copy of the purchase online at my verizon website. You will need to print it out to expidite any issues that you have if you bring it back to the store.
Personally I would rather purchase locally, but making me wait for the rebate when I purchase from the store, vs getting it taken right off the top ordering online, I don't like to wait for my money
