You know what bothers me the most? Despite Nokia knowing that TMO exists, despite us folks showing the most support for something that might have the chance of flopping since it's not being widely distributed, despite having a committee with access to Nokia... not one bit of communication has come from Nokia about possibly letting us purchase the Nokia N9.

Talk about a captive audience. Nokia, take advantage of it. Give all of us a very clear and easy manner to purchase this, make it clear about the warranty information through this community purchase program and make it happen.

I just... cannot believe that has not come up as a potential option. Nokia USA and Nokia Canada eCommerce sites are closed. We have to wait for Amazon or pay a premium at Expansys. Hell, I'm having to find Plan B for a lot of folks and have to fly down to Mexico probably to get some.

Make it easier. Whomever has the ear of somebody within Nokia that has a bit of sense; propose the aforesaid to them. Take the credit for all I care.

Sidenote: I remember when the N900 was given out to developers based on karma. My karma is quite high now, so they diverted it to a different tactic. Not saying it's related, but if they could change the way things were done before, why not add a method for us to buy it. We'd buy it.

Make it happen Nokia.
