Re: N900 shipping delayed
 
I hope the same mental genious types that control their logistics and uncoordinated sales announcements had nothing to do with the design of the N900:

1. Nov 10th "THE N900 HAS SHIPPED!" fine print = shipping from factory floors, ie the devices could still be in sub assemblies, but they were cleared to ship.

2. NO STATUS CHANGE, but channels and media asserting there was another delay. So, did the product ship when they said on the 10th by boat, or did Nokia screw up with their announcement?

3. Nov 17th N900 IS NOW SHIPPING TO CUSTOMERS IN US! Reality is there is no sign of any product movement and Nokia stores are reported to not have any yet. Depending on who you speak to, some say they do not know and some say the publication was a mistake.

Do you folks appreciate how absurd this is becoming? Nokia supply chain (channel partners too), marketing and sales territories are not on the same page and do not have a clue.

Let us hope some of these folks gene pool are not part of the design team for the N900. ;)

Even the fanboys will have to come to grips with reality when after two weeks, STILL nobody has the N900 except a few commercial samples. At least my Dell deal order is still showing as golden ;)

Maybe you should try to cool off. You will get the N900 when it is the time.

The problem is that nobody knows when "the time" is. Nokia have already made two announcements that could reasonably be interpreted to mean "the time" is "now" but it's still not "the time".

Afaik, NO tracking is provided in Italy.

Just shipping confirmation and charge on the credit cards at the moment.
