NOOO i see that too its says could change scheduled delivery date.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Just signed up for email updates from the UPS site. No information given about that damn exception.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Just spoke to UPS regarding Nokia online shop order as I wanted my delivery address changed, anyway the dude told me the package is being picked up from the Netherlands, it has yet to be collected from there even though delivery information has been processed, and more than likely it will be delivered Friday.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Yeah me to.. Hope it doesn't affect times :(

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Sorry, but hadn't we already waited for the phones to ship to UK (10th) so they could be sent out from the appropriate places? Or have I missed something?

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Explains the delays though - too many visits to the 'coffee shops' and not enough to the warehouse! LOL

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

So much for bothering with express delivery eh?

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

i have a horrible feeling our devices are going nowhere today and will be stuck at the depot until tomorrow :mad::(

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

There is no Steve employeed within Nokia Retail - Guildford or any of our Nokia Retail stores.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

If you click on the exlanation of events for UPS you get:

Now all I have showing on mine is Billing Information Received so lokos like not out of the warehouse yet but that would fit the normal model of put them on a pallet and then truck them out at end of the day.

I do however suspect that they might have missed the overnight to UK.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Just got my shipment email at 16:14

Order placed on 21st Oct with standard delivery.

Now it's a race to see who gets their first :p

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Well, I'm pretty peeeeed off again. After being told this am that there was loads of stock (Nokia cancelled by 5 Nov order) and that my new online order last night would be fulfilled no problem with a shipping email today.I have just learnt (after ringing nokia because I did not receive promised email) that stocks are getting low ie 300+ pieces currently in warehouse. I said that I thought my order should be back dated to my original date ie the 5th and asked to speak to a supervisor, not that they really have much power to do anything. I was told they would ring me in the next 24 to 48 hours with an update - so looks pretty hopeless if you ask me, or am I just a pessimist when really I should just trust them that all will be well? So I have missed my slot by the looks of it and who knows whats going on.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Shipped -------- yipeeeeeeeeeee ---------- although its standard delivery - not sure whether i'll receive it tomorrow!

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

That is really odd, coz I ordered on 5 Nov and got a shipping email yesterday albeit that it was cancelled because of card problems and Nokia being authorised to take.!! Doesn't look like they are shipping them by date of orders received does it?

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

It's weird, actual time said:

Shipped from Warehouse 24-Nov-2009 16:42

But it's only 16:20 right now...

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

same! woot

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Congratz to all of you lucky guys. MPD and theirs "exclusive availability" suck balls a lot right now. :(

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

are we an hour behind in UK?

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

talk about throw all the numbers, letters, thoughts, promises, lies in a box, shake it up, throw them out and then use that info as the facts - thanks Nokia.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

from europe, I think so

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

the time is a hour in front of UK time so your order shipped at 15;42 uk time

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Use http://www.packagemapping.com

It gives you more details, it also has a nice Google Maps integration.

It also shows your Reference Number which is the Nokia Order Number on there as well.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Me too!!!

I have to stay late to work today coz I need to deal with USA suppliers, but I'm so happy I don't care!!!

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

I ordered mine on the very same day with standard .
No shipping email yet :(

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Any thoughts on when the "Preorder" on http://shop.nokia.co.uk/nokia-uk/pro...00_bestsellers

will change to "Order now" ,
now that they seem to be prepping to ship?

I have an Amazon preorder for 2months, but thinking of switching.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

I doubt it. It's like a 30minute flight.. Delivery companies would rather get the product delivered and out the way ASAP than having it take up room in the warehouse.. So many times I had opted for the cheaper delivery option only to receive it next day.

I'm hoping it's the same here.. Although I'm curious about the Exception. Hopefully it's not Nokia recalling them!

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Go ahead mate, I've seen people ordered on the 20th (4 days ago) got their processed email.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Where are you based?

The cargo planes are flying to the Midlands.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

i'm in the midlands woohoo
i bet the exception is they've delayed express deliveries to get the free deliveries on same flight as they all getting there shipping confirmations now

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Liverpool..

Maybe the 30mins is a bit of an exaggeration, but my point is, it's a short distance from the UK so I wouldn't be surprised if they have continuous flights. Probably be cheaper for them to operate at off-peak times.

How do you know they are going to the midlands?

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

UPS centre for the UK is East Midlands Airport.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Whilst I am really please for you all getting your N900 shipping confirmations, I can't help but feel incredibly bitter... Please send mine soon MPD!! :mad:

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Now I'm confused. I picked up the shipping email at about 15:40. Nokia sent it at 14:16, according to the email. But the 'track' says it left the UPS warehouse at 16:33 - which is right about when I logged in to look at it. (The link in the email didn't work).

So... when did it leave from where?

Added to which the 'track your parcel' info I can see simply has 'left warehouse' and 'arrived dstination' with no info for where it might be in between. Is there some way I can actually track its progress? It would fill an evein otherwise spent on biting nails. ;)

Edit! My package experienced an exception!! WTF does that mean? :(

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Aye, I've been thinking that.

the only other consideration is that, I get a 15% discount on Nokia on most products, but it's not working on the N900.
I assume thats because it's still a preorder.

Hoping they go to proper order soon.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Well I've been looking up what this exception could possibly mean, and it doesn't look good. It can be either of:

1. Package not yet properly scanned
2. Being returned to manufacturer due to damaged/bad packaging
3. Missed flight
4. Incorrectly routed

Either way, it's likely to delay things.. Oh well..

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

you need to minus an hour from times on tracking pages as they are a hour in front of UK time

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

@RevdKathy I think every bodys device has experienced thsi exception thing :(

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Order Date 20/10/2009 11:12 CET no shipping email yet but said it will be shipped today order status has just changed when i was on the phone to nokia.

express shipping plus extra battery ordered. what time did you guys order?

not long now :-)

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 

Umm

I just checked "Steve" out and well...

All the information he's been giving out is complete and utter BS.

Unfiltered not from concentrate BS

The store he claims to be from/working for have never (& I confirmed with the manager who's been there a number of years) heard of him

:D

My guess is that he's a member of the forum who made an alias because he wanted to reassure himself

Borderline schitzo behaviour

lol
