Next September I am staying in Oulu (FI) for a couple of days. I think I will buy myself a little present there before coming back to Spain. :D

Re: No N9 in UK, FR, IT, NL, ES and D?

I think the countries not listed (NL and more) are still going to get it. The Netherlands is one of the larger Nokia customers, because here Nokia is still one of the market leaders. And.. I have yet to see a WP7 here in the wild! Would make absolutely no sense to skip these countries and aim for the sea ray (what kind of **ap name is that anyways, sounds like the only thing to have survived the burning platform for it was submerged)

I am slightly concerned that they will not produce enaugh units considering Eflop's actions lately. However noting that the N9 will be a more consumer targeted phone, they better make more of these than they made n900s. Fingers crossed.

A sea ray is a large flat fish, that "flies through the water like birds through air". Nokia desperately needs something like that to hold on to, after plummeting into the freezing ocean to escape the burning platform. :)

Also "Sea Ray" seems to be a boat maker, which again fits with the "rescue boat" analogy.

Let's just hope it doesn't turn out to be a sting ray.

I have wrote a mail to Nokia Germany and got this answer:

That's not the reason. The store has also closed in Finland and Sweden and they are on the list.

Re: No N9 in UK, FR, IT, NL, ES and D?

Norway is not on the list and they are saying:

Det er ikke blitt sluppet noe som helst informasjon når det gjelder pris og tilgjenglighet for N9.

Jeg ser dog ingen grunn til å tro at denne telefonen ikke vil bli sluppet i Norge. Uavhengig av det, vil den jo bli laget for det Europeiske markedet, så den vil fungere i Norge.

Med andre ord, det er ingen info ennå, men du har ingen grunn til å bekymre deg!

Google translate (lazy):

It has not been released any information regarding price and availability of the N9.

I see however no reason to believe that this phone will not be released in Norway. Regardless of that, it will be made for the European market, so it will work in Norway.

In other words, there is no info yet, but you have no reason to worry!

I have asked why the N9 is variable at nokia.at and nokia.ch (produkt site) and here there answer.
German:

Quote:

vielen Dank für Ihre Kontaktaufnahme mit Nokia Care.

Der verschiede Inhalt von unseren Lokalseiten geht auf verschiedene Marketingkonzepte zurück. Aus diesem Grund gibt es manchmal Unterschiede in den Zeitpunkten, zu welchen wir die neuesten Produkten unseren Kunden vorstellen. Wir versichern Ihnen, dass wir auch bald N9 zu unserer deutschen Seite einfügen werden, und bedanken uns herzlich für Ihre Interesse.

Translated (google it is easier):

Quote:

Thank you for contacting Nokia Care

The contents of our various local sites dating back to different marketing concepts. For this reason, there are sometimes differences in the times at which we introduce the latest products to our customers. We assure you that we will soon add to our N9 German side, and thank you for your interest.

Maybe it will be available for the other as well... but i still disagree with there "marketing concepts"...

New answer in Norwegian:

Quote:

Hei igjen,

Den listen gjelder kun for de land hvor Nokia har en egen nettbutikk. De vil nemlig gi en notifikasjon for når den blir tilgjengelig i deres egen butikk. Blant annet Norge og Danmark har ikke dette, derfor er ikke Norge og Danmark på listen.

Google:

Quote:

Hello again,

The list applies only to the countries where Nokia has its own shop. They will in fact provide a notification when it becomes available in their own shop. Among other things, Norway and Denmark do not have this, why is not Norway and Denmark on the list.

Re: No N9 in UK, FR, IT, NL, ES and D?

At the "N9 finally here" thread, zymo posted this link from amazon.de
http://www.amazon.de/Nokia-Smartphon...369424&sr=1-21
BUT, if i search for Nokia N9, i cant find it... very strange...

So it looks like it will be available in germany, at least the 16GB Version... for 619,- EUR...
I bet that the N9 with 64GB will cost 699,-

In austrian homepage (nokia.at) you can add your email, so they will advice you when it's avaiable.

A dropdown list on Nokias webpage is not the end-all gospel regarding availability. Especially when the dev-page for the N9 states.

"Regional Availability:Global "

http://www.developer.nokia.com/Devic...ifications/N9/ - General tab

It doesn't say excluding UK, FR, IT, NL or any other WP launch countries, global means global.

Second, the dropdown list is completely bogus, here in Denmark we have 2 carriers confirming they'll stock the N9 upon release, one more stating they'll only carry the 16 GB version, and another carrier stating they'll wait and see how it's received. All 4 of them though acknowledging that it will in fact be released in DK - Even though we aren't in the dropdown list.

your theory was wrong!! I was hoping it would come to the UK! oh well Samsung/iphone here i come!

Have you seen that the title of the article says "[AT-Import]"?

Re: No N9 in UK, FR, IT, NL, ES and D?

On amazon.de they first said that it comes from Nokia Gmbh ( = Nokia Germany), than changed to nokia.at (= Nokia Austria).

Austria was allways mentioned by Nokia where it will be available, but not Germany. For me this is the confirm that it will not be officially released by Nokia in Germany.

Well, it should still be available @Amazon UK.
And hopefully countless other retail channels.
Not clear if they're doing that for the US, might be Amazon only. :(

Price might be high initially, but will definitely come down over time.
Pre-order prices are "sometimes" very good.

But there may not be any dramatic drops, till after release of Searay.
Or there may never be dramatic drops, so WP looks more compelling.
Wouldn't surprise me... sigh...
