Yours arrived before mine even departed! I'd be surprised if you didn't get it tomorrow!

Edit: Samsung Genio arrived.

Yeah, I was told by the manager the stock was due today (thursday) for pre order fulfillment friday.. but the couriers let them down (yet nokia.co.uk can ship from netherlands to uk in under a day?!)

He said the stock was due fri, sat or mon for fulfillment monday for pre-orders only.. everyone else was end of next week.. because the pre-orders were highest priority.

I did point out that EVERY other time they'd promised the device within 2 days it had been wrong (end of last week, the twitter post that was pulled, last night) but he *really* assured me it would be monday.... when I received a call...

He did, however, offer to write something down as proof.. I gratiously declined..

Seriously, I doubt it.. it's going to be the 4th isn't it..
DAMN I wish I'd pre-ordered online.. I was just worried about being at home for the delivery..as I very rarely am during the day.

It was much better with the N97, got a weeks notice at least..

Seriously, how often do commercial courier services screw up this badly? not very often..

What is the shipping volume of 150 N900s? I recon I could fit in a damn transit van!!

And seriously.. a day to "scan them into their system"

hands up who'd turn up on their door step to do it for them when the stock arrived!

very unimpressed..

But.. I did speak to the manager, and I did give him the benefit of the doubt.. so.. I'll whine and moan then :)

In other words: they don't have any idea

I pre-ordered and so did a number of people on around 20/10 and still haven't received them. So you might have been as unlucky as us. At this rate I will probably receive the N900 at same time as you do.

Shhh,... I'm trying to ignore that factoid! Remaining optimistic these days is hard enough as it is.
