Correct. Better chance of getting in a store who has their allocation already instead of waiting for a third shipment allocation.

I am going cheap though- Dell $462 or I might keep Droid and accept as fate ;)

anyone else have a 15% off coupon that doesn't want to wait so long for Dell to deliver? I would like to use the coupon to order an N900 for my wife and we don't mind waiting for the delivery.

So if you have a coupon, please let me know :)

If not then and considering the holidays and Nokia's less than steller management of the launch, January may not be as absurd a date as thought.

anyone want a 15% off coupon? (expires in 2 days)

Re: Dell has the N900 for as low as $442
 
I too was told Nov 24th Dell will start shipping. I think they are overbooked and a few people will get theirs soon after the 24th, most will have to wait for a later shipment. I'm going to stop following the threads because this anticipation is killing me and I have little faith in Dell. Better to try and forget about it and be pleasantly surprised if it arrives ahead of time (if at all).

Hi, I am new here and about to take the plunge and buy the N900.
Do you still have the coupon code for Dell?
Thanks

Yes, I have it. I bought it on eBay for $4.99. There are more. Although I would like to sell mine for what I paid for it, I'll consider giving it away to a deserving community member too...

Haha, i'm no deserving community member. I'm just a little man who wants to own a N900. Anyway, I'll go buy one from ebay. Thank you though.

Re: Dell has the N900 for as low as $442
 
Folks, NYC is apparently calling people to pick up their N900's so since Dell is a direct channel partner, some of the Dell orders should be updated in the next few days.

I still bet the Dell deals will be last in line, but this will be a good test for the theory.

Perhaps we need to use the order list going around on the thread? We should be able to see if some of us are being passed based on price rather than order date ;)

Dell does not offer an extended warranty. I asked. You are stuck with the 1 year warranty from Nokia. However, you can purchase a 3 year warranty from squaretrade.com. I just purchased my warranty using a coupon I found here:

http://blog.squaretrade.com/

The coupon code is: PRETHANK

The coupon info says:



You can buy a basic warranty that covers manufacturer's defects or hardware failure due to normal use, or a more comprehensive one that includes accidental damage. Since I am usually very careful with my things I went for the basic one. It came to about $52 total.

Fine print says:

"* Offer valid for warranties for items purchased from any retailer, except Amazon.com, Buy.com, Abt Electronics, Vann's Inc, and Woot.com, and to residents of the U.S."

Does that mean that the coupon is not available to US residents?

Novurania 2009-11-19 23:06

Re: Dell has the N900 for as low as $442
 
I placed an order on Dell yesterday with a discount and have an estimated delivery data of Dec 22, 2009.

I went on the Dell site 30 minutes ago and got as far as submit order.

The estimated deliver date on the final order screen as Feb 3 2010.

I also tried a coupon code today. After entering a coupon code, it replaced the $70 instant saving. The code I had was for $20. So, unless you have at least 15% code you won't save anything.

mine was on hold but its not even on hold anymore, this is the second thing that I have waited so long to get it after my car which I waited for a whole year.

netwrx 2009-11-20 14:38

Re: Dell has the N900 for as low as $442
 
My timeline and I am not there yet....However it look promising...

Ordered through Dell on 11/5 around 4:45 cst. Just could not resist the price. 441.99 plus tax.

Received the order confirmation within few minutes. Checked order status as soon I received it. Just to make sure everything is ok. It indicated Order to be shipped Dec 10,2009

Called Dell yesterday. Got through to a rep in a few minutes. He obtained all the information and put me on hold for a few minutes. Came back and told me that Dell would start receiving shipment on Nov 24th, and pre-order shipments would start on the same day directly from the manufacturer.

They even bumped my shipping to next day delivery free of charge when I told them that I would be out on Dec 10th. So my delivery date changed to Dec 8 instead of Dec 10.

Dell rep indicated that my n900 is very likely to be shipped Nov 26 or 27 and I could expect delivery the following business day...So Nov 30th.

I live very close to Chicago, I could get one over this weekend. But saving about $200 in this economy sounds more prudent for me.

The Dell rep I talked to told me they would drop ship from the manufacturer starting Dec 7th.

So, is your CC charged? Also, did you use the coupon code or through the regular purchase?
