I suppose DHL doesn't deliver on Sat at least in Italy :)
Oh well, I'll be back in Italy tomorrow.. I'll make sure I'll test everything on the new shiny N900.

So after being delayed by the snow, the package finally made it to my house.
I've just received the N900 and I still have to check everything is fine..

But, it has been opened already.
The N900 box was not sealed as when you buy a new one, the camera cover was slide open and there was dust on the screen and there was no screen protector (the black one you have to peel off) on the screen itself.

Not sure why, I'll ask DDP if they "tested" the phone before sending it.

Anyone had the same experience?

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

The first one I got, had a seal on the "posti" package around the N900 package. This one also looked completely untouched. No dust anywhere, screen protection film very firm on the screen. I had to send that one back because the vibration alert broke during the first day. The replacement looked touched: no seal on the "posti" package, screen protection film present, but quite loose, some dust under protector, fingerprint on camera lens, battery cover not completely closed. (Don't want to complain, just facts.)

PS. Hint: In order to remove dust from screen and sticky protector, adhesive tape works very well as dust catcher.

@Anidel: when it came it was virgin. Yours smells like refurbished, maybe.

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Don't think it's a refurbished one.
Definitely someone opened the package, the "posti" one was sealed.

Everything is working fine though, that's important :)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

anyway, spot the difference :)

OVI says it's a private file (or has been deleted). Any way, can't show it

You were too fast, now you can :)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

You could as well do a nice house of cards with them :) (BTW the nearest has no N900 tag in the upright corner)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

It was similar for me too. The replacement had the battery in and the battery cap was not firmly closed on all sides.

The new mac is only different in the last two digits but the new device doesn't reboot constantly. There are some occasional reboots but I have confidence to the Maemo guys and the next update.

The DDP people and especially Nora have been really friendly, profesional and quick in resolving the problem.
