N900 + Extra Battery
Sub Total: £524.00
Discount: £202.20
Delivery Cost:
Express (1-3 days) £9.99
Total: £331.79 (This order includes £43.28 VAT)

sweet deal :-) I keep checking on the order status to check it still there. Still find it hard to believe £200+ discount on a brand new phone. I now get to keep my great old flext account with discount.

How did you get it so damn cheap?

Got the order in when all 3 discount codes were working :-). Really looking forward to the phone even more. As soon as I see it posted I placed order it was only a matter of time before Nokia clocked on.

Ouch, end of the year! So I'll have my N900 but be unable to use it with my existing data contract for a while... *feeling the pain already*

Glad to hear it's a software update and not a hardware update, though. Phew!

Mid-Nov release now apparently, fingers crossed they can get the software update done for that deadline so people with those sim cards can use the phone straight away. One can at least hope...

Is anyone apart from MPD offering this phone yet???
I am having alot of trouble ordering online from them and they have suggested trying one of their stores, but none are near me.....
You can't order one over the phone via MPD - online only
I have been on the T-Mobile and Vodofone sites, but they are not listing the n900 yet?

Where else has anyone seen a n900 with contract?

How new? My SIM card is from 2007. Does that mean I am safe?

Same here. The only two tabs showing are View all Networks :confused: & vodafone. The T-Mobile tab is gone.

I had the T-mobile plans in my browser history, page now returns Your search query has returned no results. Please try an alternative search.

They removed the t mobile option because they have reached the limit for t mobile contracts on n900 anyone who got in before then you will still receive it.
