In your case i wouldn't even bother getting the n9. But I resisted buying the galaxy 2 for some time now and am sick of waiting (Lost my n900, currently using a dumbphone (um sorry, old s60 handset)).

64gb is now showing as available in few places. Will you get it. I need one too here in US.

be carefull with them. lots of people with bad experiences with either orders or the returns policy. Their products come from aisa where they are really based. their address used to be a house in an estate in the UK, now it's isle of wight. google them for reviews.

edit:
found a thread with lots of bad stories from them. suggest reading it right through (only a few pages) before buying from them.

My order status at clickok.se is: "Skickad från lager"

Does that mean they already shipped it? How did you get a tracking number, have you asked clickok for it by mail ?

Their webpage seems to suggest that means shipped. Yes I mailed to ask for tracking Nr. But all is a bit unclear - for me it was like this:

Tuesday: status changed to "Skickad från lager" and stays there ever since.
Thursday 13.10 evening: email with tracking nr arrives.
Friday 14.10.evening: Tracking number starts working and as of today says this:

15 okt Stockholm utr,Sverige, The item has been dispatched from Posten´s international terminal for onward transport abroad.
15 okt Stockholm utr,Sverige, The item has arrived at Posten´s international terminal for sorting and transport abroad.
14 okt Posten Företag Kocksgatan, The item has been redirected within Posten to a sorting terminal.
14 okt Posten Företag Kocksgatan, The item has been deposited.

Kocksgaten Post office is close to clickok's store address I believe.
So maybe skickad from lager just means that their distributor sent it to them?

Word by word it means: "Sent from stock", it means sent from distribitor. Sometimes the package goes directly from distribitor to customer but foreign orders probably goes by clickok before they are forwarded.

Yea it's not that I don't think they're reputable, it's that the amount of information they're asking for isn't something I want scanned and sent out.

Took your word on them and sent an email seeing if we could arrange another means of verification. Worse comes to worse, and so long as they have stock and can immediately ship Monday, I'll just do a bank transfer - shouldn't be any confirmation needed for that.
