Re: N900 shipping delayed

I respectfully suggest there is no stock to ship yet and during the first week of November, a legion of brain-dead iPhone users will be directed to box the N900's up for shipping.

Joking about the second part. Kind of.

Re: N900 shipping delayed

At this rate, by the time the n900 comes out, Apple would have released their iPhone that now does multi-tasking haha.

Re: N900 shipping delayed

Why do I feel like these ads are portraying the N900 user as a loser? I don't see the positive spin of these ads.

Yeah that's the theme I get as well. The idea seems to be "Even if you're a complete ***** the N900 will save your ***".

That said I am a ***** in many ways and having a decent phone (GPS, calendar etc) has saved my *** many times :D

When has any device EVER been delayed simply because the pre-orders are greater than the expected stock level?

I am fairly sure nobody would ever bother delaying for that reason because there is no logic to delaying everyones devices just so that everyone gets it at the same time. For a start, that is the point of saying "in selected markets", so if it gets delayed more in one region than another you can say "we did warn you".

I think it was pretty obvious, even before the recent post confirming it, that the delay is for bug fixing. No company in their right mind would delay a product purely to let the warehouse fill with them, all the while losing money because nobody has paid for one yet.

Re: N900 shipping delayed

I'm a bit confused about the official videos about the youtube playback.
There's only one video showing it playing smooth and in the other videos they start playing the videos, stopping them "Oh connection problems - doesn't load here correct and more" and not showing it

I'll wait for this device - better not failing at this otherwise I feel very sad cause if youtube and flash doesn't work smooth I just could get any other smartphone with a keyboard.
