Well. Damn. Nothing like forcing my hand. I already have my next couple mobiles mapped out: the Lumia 900, Galaxy S3, and the iPhone 5. And, if it's cheap enough, when the NAM Lumia 800 drops, I may grab one. I'm bored to tears with my current GN.

I just cannot let go of the N9. I know that it's a dead OS with outdated hardware. I refuse to pay current price for one. Everything else I walk away from, no problem. I just think it's so alien from anything out there, I just can't look away. Plus I need a back up mobile and having a unlocked penta band laying around might be useful. Damn it. I want to find an open box one at a price I can't refuse...

Dude, I got a 16gb N9 from Expansys UK for $430 AUD, including shipping to Australia... Made in Finland.

You're not going to find it cheaper than that!

Damn it. Stop talking sense. Yeah. I know. I'm going to finally cave in the next day or so. I'd like a Fin made one so I'm working through US online retailers.

I also got my N9 from Expansys UK when it had a price drop, I paid £364.99 with everything included and a free UK-EU adapter :D

But now it has gone up to £394.99 =[ but the red(magenta) N9 is £349.99.

I was quite tempted by the Black 64GB variant on Expansys UK. Does a Cyan 64GB variant not exist? Still, I'm not used to paying such high prices, although I know it is SIM free. Quite happy with how versatile my N900 is still, but the N9 is a thing of beauty.

64Gb comes only in Black &/or White.
And as I hear their [N9-64Gb-Black's] production has stopped, or going to be by Q-1/2012 (sic!).

I'm starting to wonder if I should get the N9 very soon. But I really want the white one any ideas where I can buy a white one and get it sent to USA?

I had been waiting and waiting thinking that the 64gb would drop. I waited till after CES thinking the Lumia 900 would shift the demand.

The price dropped to around 650 USD, and stayed firm. Then the guy I got it from said he only had a few left. So I pulled the trigger. The price is still about the same, I think it went down like 10 bucks.

I think the "supply" is causing the price to remain relatively fixed on the 64gb, while the more widely available 16gb has clearly gone down

I'm trying to source a white n9 this week or the next. If I know I can't get it, I will just order the black 64gb next week.

I let myself wait too long!

Whatever u do - do it soon... 'coz even the 16GBs shall be hard to get after mid-2012. While by end-2012 they'd be kaput !
