Yeah I understand your pain...

There's no doubt there's been measures taken to artificially slow delivery of the N9.
Or at the very least measures taken to keep the roll-out footprint small, & anemically marketed.
Plus I suspect (hope not) Nokia's had a hand in limiting/delaying public knowledge of exact release dates.

Based on everything that's happened over the past 6mth, it's hard not to think otherwise.
Oh well, we're getting to the 'pointy end' now...
So hopefully things will become crystal clear for every country, in the next 4-weeks.

*edit*
Think this may have been posted, also includes a fairly accurate summary of worldwide availability.

Sigh... so much news about Symbian from Nokia...
It's like they're trying harder to plug a platform scheduled for death, than they are MeeGo.
(Which is 'unofficially' scheduled for death too I guess )
