They don't need to admit it isn't ready for market, if it was ready I would have one wouldn't I?

Not every market is like the microsoft/apple one, where vista was the best OS ever and the original iphone was brilliant. ;)

Nokia had always targeted Oct release, the Maemo summit was on Oct 8. If they had planned for fixes to any feedback from developers they only realistically gave themselves less than 2 weeks for fix and QA(at least 1 week for developers to find issues) which is totally unrealistic for a release quality firmware.

They could not have "planned" the final release around potential feedback from developers.

The credit card I used for pre-order was charged.
I think we can assume that the delay is over

they charged you on a sunday?

they charged (put a hold on the funds) on my credit card on 10/1/09 and then again on 10/10/09...and nothing since.


tomorrow is monday. i will see in the morning if they put a hold or actually charge my card.


the hold was placed by brightpoint (nokia directly) though i have a pre-order with nokia directly for 1 and also with expansysusa for one...but they will call me first.

where did you order from? Is it an actual charge v. authorization hold?

Hm. They have removed the hold on mine.

"Nokia Brightpoint" authorized my card again on the 24th. Not a charge just a hold. I doubt we will have our phones in anything less than 30 days.

Several others have had cards charged or holds placed on card. We can assume wait is over when someone gets a shipping with delivery date notice. Until then nothing matters. Now back to watching videos to feed my desire.
