Hey R-R sorry to hear that.
Have you tried sending a message to the maemo developer mailing list. I've heard that Quim has read some of the messages over there. Maybe he will see your story.
Also Pegiunbait seems to be in good with Quim and got his n810 for the US before anyone else here in the states (and hasn't provided details on how he did it.) But you might PrivMail him here and see if he could pass on your contact info to Quim.
Also timsamoff above seems to be in good with the Maemo team on this and might be able to provide you some connections.

Best of luck, and I bet you get yours before I get mine!!
