The repair form's is telling me to send the device to Melbourne, Florida is that correct? Is that a third party repair center? Anybody got some exprience with Nokia's warrenty?
I think Nokia and SE contract out to Arvato in FL to do their repairs and firmware flashes for all their hardware. I sent them my w600 a few months ago for repairs. Be prepared not to get any updates if you try calling customer service though, they'll just be like, "its in repair." I got that answer when I called and then later that day, it was delivered to my door.
