It's great to see all the happy 'received' emails coming in :D

I added a "Prize received" column to the Prizes table in the Wiki, please update to let me know when your device has arrived safely. (I've started it off with the ones mentioned on here so far)

That is amazingly quick! I don't know about anyone else, but I'm going to celebrate DHL's speed to Colombia by watching some music videos of Shakira. On my own. With the door locked.

Those hips don't lie...

Got my N950 today. It's going to be very hard to keep working my job for the rest of the day. It's going to be even harder to get to the gym tonight...

Wow! No email, but a shiny new 64GB black N9 just arrived this afternoon! Time to start experimenting.

You can get a thumb muscle workout with the extra stiff N950 sliding hinge :p

Good to hear it arrived, weird about the box but as long as the phone itself is in perfect shape :)

Excellent :D I was thinking about you when i was filling in the prize received column, cos I remembered you hadn't received your DHL email yet. Seems like they wanted to surprise you ;)

Congrats for receiving the devices guys!

DHL employee contacted me today, told me it may arrive on sunday at earliest. The DHL tracking shows that there is a "Clearance delay" for two days already.
Come on DHL, hurry things up, can't wait to get my hands on that n950! :)

In mine case: they finished clearance today at 8PM (after 3 days of waiting), but I think that this is due to government of my country, not due to DHL.

Hopefully it will arrive tomorrow.

How do I update the N950 to the latest firmware? I tried doing a software update from the phone itself, but it just hangs at "preparing phone for update."

I also believe I read there is a stable 1.3 firmware that was "leaked"? Is it indeed "stable"? Any gotchas with using that? Don't want to mess up my new beloved.

Thanks!

Yesterday I updated mine with this: http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/release/N950-39-5/

I tought that it would be the safest way, since the device had a firmware that was older than the previous of 39-5. With Kubuntu 10.04 update worked like a charm with the instructions linked above. Note, however that One Click Flasher will erase everything, so backup if you already have some important data on device!

I'm curious about the leaked firmware, too. Any comments about it would be appreciated much!
