Sad news, in my lab at Danish Technical University we had a large number of N900s stolen.
Most of the phones have danish keyboard so probably they will appear on the danish/norwegian/swedish market, but not necessarily.

At this moment, I will not yet provide IMEI numbers of the stolen phones, but I ask you:
If you see an N900 in a perfect state for sale, but without box or any papers, please contact me.
If you see a larger number of N900s for sale, without boxes or papers, please contact me.


Why is it important? Those are not our private phones, those are used by students for projects and learning. I guess those are as much 'community phones' as it gets.

My contact info: arekquest@gmail.com or PM.

Thank you.

[edit] Another clue: see those N900s among N95s, X6s, N810s, 5800s, N97s? Those can be also ours.

Really sorry to hear that, will keep an eye out.

You've got to feel sorry for people that have to steal to get through their lives.

Scum-bags.

Don't you all have your lab locked with keys? I bet this was an inside job. No random person can enter your lab and still that amount of phones. Question those you work with... you have a better chance of retrieving the phones by doing so than posting here.

And how would the thief know they even existed in the lab? I agree.

This is very sad news.

If I were you, I would certainly contact the police.

Let's hope that this is not Apple's next global operation against its competitors, or we're all in trouble!

I believe that the police is included in "everyone", so no need to convince him to call the police.

if you know the IMEI numbers you can give them to police and to all phone companies. as soon as the thieves put a sim card and enter a cell phone network they will be tracked down. each cell phone transmits the phone number, the sim card ID and IMEI to the network.
this way, the phone company can find out the phone number of the person who has the phone with the specific IMEI
