Here's a quick run-down:
Circuit City, Best Buy, Target and WalMart will have a few available first come first serve so expect people to be lining up EARLY. ToysRUs and GameStop will not have any available in-store so don't bother going there.
Most places are tight lipped about the number of units available but you should be able to expect somewhere between 10-20 per store (not verified).
Some stores are having midnight launches so I would expect them all to follow suit regardless of what you've read.
Verified Information:
Circuit City in Union Square is having a special launch party selling 100 units to the first 100 people in line AND giving away 100 units in a raffle. As of this afternoon, there were already 100 people in line so forget about buying one from this location... but you could still add your name to the raffle. Other than that, I would avoid this store like the plague as things could turn very ugly tomorrow evening. Its likely other Circuit City's in the area will have fewer units available to subsidize the large quantity available at this location.
According to Best Buy... ALL stores will have 20 60GB units and 6 20GB units 'minimum'. There were already people lining up at NYC Best Buy locations Tuesday afternoon so if you're reading this now you're probably too late for Best Buy snags. Officially, they are selling them Friday morning, but rumor has it they are having midnight launches, too.
Best advice... go to out of the way stores as most people will be heading to main locations (like Union Square). You'll have better luck elsewhere.
Hope the above information helps... and Good Luck to ALL!

You might want to try Best Buy, they should get more than Gamestop.
