BTW, the code for the $75 coupon is "Tampa". I hope this helps.
(Someone posted that info a few days ago, but it seems everyone confused it with the developers discount)

Re: Pre-order thread?
 

I pre-ordered from Amazon.com. I received a notification for an expected shipping date between Nov 26 - Nov 30.

Re: Pre-order thread?
 

Maybe I should not have canceled my Amazon pre-order so soon. Worse, their price has gone up to $460 :(

Re: Pre-order thread?
 

So now letstalk.com just told me that they need to verify my bank info today, which should not require my assistance. I hope they don't run into any problems working with PayPal (debit card). I just have this sinking feeling right now....

And I was under the impression until now that letstalk.com is a Nokia outfit. Turns out Nokia just uses them to fulfull their orders.

Re: Pre-order thread?
 

So thanks to ThoughtFix for the heads up. Even if it takes 2 weeks to ship, the coupon is well worth the wait.

I was also able to order mine. Got the $75 discount. Didn't even have to ask for it, they gave it to me for "the inconvience of having to wait". The sales rep said it would ship next week, and I was also given free 2-day shipping. An awesome deal.

I doubt it'll ship until the 27th, but we'll see. My order status is also currently in a "contact customer service" status. This is odd because they were pretty thorough with their "fraud checks" over the phone. A SSN based credit check for a simple purchase, really?

Lurker, did you finally get to speak with the department to verify needed details or did they eventually update you via email to let you know about the bank verification?

Re: Pre-order thread?
 

As a Canadian resident I'm unable to order though that line. can anyone suggest an alternative way for me to order and receive this discount.

Re: Pre-order thread?
 

In for 1.
w/ the $75 discount it won out over the N800, even though it's stuck with the fixed camera. Now I just need the 1 Terabyte microSD
/edit -
Thanks Thoughtfix -
I was wavering between the 800 at - which would probably do everything I needed and the 810, That extra $$ off sure swung the deal.

Re: Pre-order thread?
 

Just ordered mine thru Nokia. I asked for the discount and got it. She said nov 27 is what is being told but she felt it would be sooner...

Now I need to sell my N800...Mint with 2 4gig cards and Case..How much ya think I should ask???

Re: Pre-order thread?
 

so yea.. any canadians here? how can we get one of these. with discount

Re: Pre-order thread?
 

I just called Mobile City Online and they're still sticking with their Nov 23rd estimate. Couldn't get the person to tell me what my position is in the queue, unlike the other itTer that has a preorder here (he's #23 and was told they're expecting an initial batch of 50).

Letstalk.com -- in my experience they have problems with anything but US cards, and Paypal debit cards do not reliably work (even with a positive balance. maddening.). If you're Canadian .. hm. Approach a well-known forum member and ask if he/she can act as intermediary?

Perhaps Reggie can make itT a non-profit organization tasked with sending the Internet Tablets ... to boldly go where no tablets have gone before :)
