Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 
I preordered my N900 some time ago, when it was priced at $580 at amazon USA. Today, I wrote them just to ask whether I would be charged that price or the current price ($550) and he updated my order to reflect the new price "because the item was still not released".
He was not at all clear whether they would charge me this new low price if I hadn't asked. So, just a heads up for everyone that preordered at Amazon US.

If they refused to change the price to reflect the current price, just cancel your order and reorder.

latest response from MPD..

Hi

We have 500 or so pre orders and will be receiving around 1000 units from Nokia. The orders will be dispatched as soon as we get them; we can’t say the exact date due to the physical logistics of dispatching more than 500 pre orders, however we aim to complete the orders with 1-2 days.

Regards



So the 17th or 18th at the latest..

Wasn't marketing the ones that gave us this?:

Being a long time Linux user that has watched Linux outperform Windows for years only to remain in relative obscurity, I have come to appreciate the usefulness of marketing.

Imagine your furious anger if he guessed at a date and was wrong.

From what the summit participants have said (and, I think from what Peter himself said), there were some software issues. Not exactly horrible to people who don't mind rough edges, but there's a -lot- of interest in the N900 outside of that niche, so to me, it always made sense to delay it and polish the initial release up to not get egg on their faces.

Can we move this thread to off-topic? We have seriously gotten off the point and all of this is has become absolutely useless. Start your flame wars in the provided spaces on the forum and save some us our time that we wasted reading something unrelated to the topic.

i was told, that the date of 25.11. is just a placeholder and just not changed yet. also that the direct customers (nokia.de preorders) will get it first, then the nokia certified shops, then the redistributors..

(Bestellung wurde noch nicht ausgeliefert., too)

Any estimations on how long it will take to arrive in the warehouses, taken off the pallets, individually boxed, labeled, and shipped? :D

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 
Just called stupid Dell and they won't tell me anything except "Ohp! It's the 9th. I can sign you up for an automated notification when it ships, but..that's all"
Shouldn't that be standard for ANY order? For them to tell me when it ships!? Argh. If what they other guy said is true and Nokia USA has started shipping them out to customers and I have to wait till the 9th of December? I'd be so angryyy!

And there was I thinking I was reading a thread about the imminent shipping of the N900s....clearly I was mistaken..I shall go looking elsewhere for that information

How about we start another thread about n900 delivery/shipping and we can only discuss n900 delivery/shipping .

Jidi 2009-11-11 18:41

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 
Ok, now we all know that most likely at the end of the week or beginning of next week the online stores will have the phone shipped to their customers.
Is there any information available on when they might hit the stores in UK? I'm in Romania and the official importer of Nokia said most likely after mid-december, the nokia store said probably in january and the same january date was considered for operators (Vodafone and Orange). I'm considering talking a 24 hours return flight to UK to get this phone and if I order the tickets now are less expensive, that's why I ask if anybody has any clue on the date the phones are gonna hit the stores.
By the way, is the UK keyboard layout the one with four arrows? I only know about US, but US is quite far :)

Thanks!

It's now a struggle to find the N900 on the Nokia Online Store (UK)
It doesn't appear on the 'Best seller' section anymore..takes a while to dig around for the device.

So I replied back asking if those of us who pre-ordered the product are also affected by this date. still waiting for reply.

Believe me if Newegg has product on hand they will ship before that date. Otherwise, it's just potentially lost revenue, especially since they have no reason to hold onto the product except for a magical date on a webpage.

Not really, go to the 'phones by model' drop down box and its the first option.
