Excellent to know.
I have the terminal very close to where i live.
I know that i could go and get it from there if its in the terminal. Or i could just call my friend who works there.
:)

Edit: That is if i get the tracking id from Nokia which i should be able to do, right?

That's good - if yours slipped again and I got mine before you I would have felt so guilty.

I can confirm this. I spoke to a guy from customer service and he said the same thing. Let's hope we get it in a week or so, *fingers crossed*! :)

Guys. Just been to the Nokia Store (regents street London) and I can confirm they are now selling the N900. Got one myself.. about to power this baby up!

They have limited stock but if your quick you may be in luck.

Placed an order on Expansys (UK) on 3rd September. It's still showing no signs of dispatching.

Placed an order with shop.nokia.co.uk on Wednesday - and it appears to have just shipped (and I have a UPS tracking number :)). Exciting!

Now I just need to cancel the Expansys one...

This is simply crazy.

Pre-ordered last Sunday, on Tuesday I received an email saying that it has been processed, then 5 minutes later got an email saying that my card got rejected.

Placed another order, forgot to specify express delivery, cancelled it (I now realize I shouldn't have done this).

Found it on ebay, payed the money, then realized that those guys are only getting their stock in late December. Cancelled it, lost about 10 quid because of the tax.

Now ordered another one (over a phone as Nokia Online Store had another one of those stupid errors), then my card (another one this time) got rejected because I was a couple pounds short.

I don't even know whether I should get this phone now. I really want to, but all this hassle has put me off it.

Really tired, really frustrated.

Rang the store up yesterday afternoon to check that my N900 was still available and waiting for me. Eventually had my call answered and yes I appeared to be a lucky chap.

I asked if I could be given a manager's discretionary discount for all the delays. This they would not do but included a pair of their stylish bluetooth headphones, model BH-504 :D (I already have the BH-905 ones from play.com and they have awesome sound quality with my Cowon S9 audio player). Quite a good deal.

I received the phone and headset in a nice green bag which even had my name printed on paper and stapled to the bag!

The store assistant congratulated me on my luck in receiving the N900 as, she said, they had completely sold out - no more were left in stock.

P.S. sad to hear that this store may be closing...:(

*** NEWSFLASH ***

P.S. A recent Google search is showing the N900 as being available at £449 but the website still shows the price as £499. Does this suggest a big discount is imminent? :confused::confused:

Just out of curiosity to those who got their N900s, how long did you leave it charging the first time?

Did you leave it to charge fully or turn it on and use before fully charged?

I used mine for a few hours before charging it at all; as the getting started guide in the box specifically points out the battery comes supplied partially charged, so you should just be good to go out-of-the-box.

My battery was half charged so I played / tested for about 40 mins, then put it on to charge.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
so i noticed my bank account was back to standard ammount before the N900 was paid for, so rang my bank and nokia and no problems, thats a good sign i take it.

Spoke to store.nokia and the opperator tells me i will get my phone by the end of the week, as i have a pre order? i only purchased it on sat night after it got released, how is that so? - confused

told me if its not here by wed, thats 3 days since i orderd, phone back and get my express delivery money i paid refunded, so not bad either! still no phone, werd...
