SHould i cancel preorder?
 

As can be seen here, where i preordered form are only expecting them to be delivered by the 9th of dec. This is just their latest guess, as eta after eta have simply gone by without ANY contact from them.

So i'd just like to ask at the price of $591.05, and all these delays, is it worth it to change where i'm ordering from?

Also, is the shipping of the N900 being delayed AGAIN? honestly, the HD2, and DROID have come and gone and i still don't have my N900, wtf?!

after using the droid (cant say anything abt the hd2): cancel and repent!!!

Re: SHould i cancel preorder?
 

that means ... droid is nicer than the N900 ???

Re: SHould i cancel preorder?
 

I've read about HD2 in finnish forums and it seems bit bugy. But who knows... I'd wait if I were you. Don't know anything about Droid, we don't have that here.

If you want a true smartphone in regards to phone centric design. Yes.

If you want basic phone function and want netbook function in a phone size device, the N900 is best choice.

Depends on what you want.

ive currently got a htc touch pro - if the hd2 is anything like this phone (it does look kinda similar in terms of the software at least), i personally wont touch it.

firstly its got a capacitive screen (great for inaccurate repeated frustrating jabbing, not so great for controlled accurate interaction (and i have long nails ;) ) - IMO!).

secondly its got no hardware keyboard - this just compounds the first let down above. to me the hd2 is an iphone wannabe, which is the very last thing in the world i would support by wasting money on.

the software on my touch pro is rubbish - even with all the latest and greatest roms and all the free stuff from all the great chefs (thanks girls n guys!). i think the problem is the os mostly (max of 32mb ram per process, with a max of 32 processes (iirc) - a memory model straight out of 1971?).

but if you have ever had a look at the internals of touch flo you'll see what a horrific mess the software really is (IMO!) - maybe this new sense ui has had a code base clean up but i would be very surprised if the quality has improved much...

either way, im utterly done with windows mobile. im sick of the hangs and pauses which almost always happen at the times when i really need to use the device quickly and i end up having to wait for it to wake up and faff around. EXTREMELY frustrating.

hmm i didn't want this to be a rant :( oh well there you go - i felt compulsed!

but wait, if you go here http://www.dynamism.com/#Product=nokia_n900 and click on purchase, it says their deilvery's expected on 10th too!

good god, i'm gonna shank someone!

Re: SHould i cancel preorder?
 

I'm not sure if it would be wise to cancel the preorder, otherwise you might end up having to wait even longer. As I understand it, the demand is really high at the moment. Of course you may get lucky if you try it somewhere else.

Re: SHould i cancel preorder?
 

i seriously hope you are not getting this from newegg OR anyother vendor. They will screw you over. I suggest you get it from nokiausa.com and call it a day. At least they will ship out immediately unlike the rest that will not even bother telling you anything.

Re: SHould i cancel preorder?
 

Exactly. The preorder list is turning out to be the sucker list for a lot of people.

Re: SHould i cancel preorder?
 

No... by repent I meant that he will regret.

I have a N900 and decided to go for it after struggling with the droid.

Re: SHould i cancel preorder?
 

I ordered from newegg, and its currently in the mail being shipped to me. Never had a problem with newegg for the past 8 years I've used them.

Re: SHould i cancel preorder?
 

At this late stage I would hang on until end of this week. But depends where you ordered from? I cancelled my play.com preorder 6 days ago as the date went to 31/12, and I ordered thru Nokia direct. But still not heard anything from them.
