n900Stock = new n900Stock[50]; //allocate a few units, but not toooo many.

DespatchStock(n900Stock, 50);

Oops that should have been: n900Stock = new N900[50];

Anyone want to place any bets as to when the next ETA will be for shop-blt?

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

have you ever worked at nokia? Must be because thats internal knowledge ... :D :D :D

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

Nope but have been working in retail for 5 years, seen a few
pre-order lines. xbox360, wii, etc. and the bad news is invariabley
the first stock coming through is usually very small in quantity.
Furthermore to the bad news is management will fob off enquiries from customers with oh it'll be in in 2 weeks etc. when in actual fact there is no clue when the stock will be arriving!

I'm hoping nokia will be different but i'm not gonna hold my breath! :(

One more check of the order status coming up! (even tho in uk and know what the status is gonna be already)

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

you guessed it...pending stock

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

They just said it was "shipping" - the only reason we knew it was from the factory was because Peter told us.

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

The N900 will come out in Germany first. :D Guess why?

It's clearly, they announced it in Stuttgart and it will start in Stuttgart :cool:

So wait for the 25th November

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

Why in Germany first? In US n900 is first! And tomorrow in UK, so why we should wait 25th? :D

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

So there's no need for me to be jealous? :D :cool:

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

I need to call the flagship store to see if they have any in stock (doubtful).

NokiaUSA.com still says pre-order. for the love of god.

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

Finally…

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

I called Dell. My estimated delivery date is still 12/10 but they were also throwing out 11/24 as being a possible ship date. They talked about a backlog of preorders as being a reason for delay. I could be totally wrong but it sounded like they will start shipping on 11/24. I am not super high on the list and they are backlogged so the supposed maximum time for my delivery is 12/10.

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

The funny thing is usually it isn't even that initial stock is limited, it is artificially capped, whether by the manufacturer not sending enough or stores holding back stock. Does anyone really believe that every hot product can't be produced in sufficient numbers to meet demand? Yet they all have no issues pre-selling them to everyone and their dog. It's just to keep the hype going. Look at the Wii for instance, they limited stock on that for like almost 2 years. At their store here in New York they would make people line up everyday in the morning before opening and sell some capped amount.

I'm pre-ordering the N910. :rolleyes: See you guys next year. :D

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

Nokia Flagship stores have no idea what is going on. Typical.

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

NYC Flagship store is clueless. I called 5 mins ago asking if they have Nokia N900 in stock, they said they didn't. I asked when they would get stock in, they said in a few weeks.

Heads up their a**ses.

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

Yeah...I talked to some guy named Sam and he said it [the release] was a mistake. He said the phone is DEFINITELY not in stock.

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

I'm sure they have no clue... maybe, though, they did get stock in today but they're filling pre-orders with those? And they get more stock in a week or two? Dunno, just throwing that into the ring.

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

Nokia's biggest market and customer base in Europe and where do they start to ship first???

USA - wow!!! what a wonderful announcement!

Quit posting in both threads. It's not like you ever have anything to contribute anyways (other than *****ing).

Re: N900 shipping delayed
 

It depends on the product of course but ramping up production to meet demand is non-trivial. In the case of the xbox360 for example initial yields were disastrously low - on the order of 10%. The means only 1 out of 10 of xboxes they produced actually worked.
