I managed to get a new N800 from uBid.com (appears to have been manufactured in April of 2008). Came in the mail just today (ordered it just a couple of days ago and got here by 2nd Day over FedEx). I feel lucky--it was one of the only four that they had in stock and I was the first one to put in a claim and they were all snapped up pretty quickly. I was tempted to snap up all four and sell the other three... heh.

They ARE getting impossibly hard to find and I know coworkers who WANT one (and, like me, they're not as interested in the N810).

I'm getting rid of my old one because the kickstand is broken and Nokia is being a pain in the arse about getting replacement parts. I ordered up pretty nice looking case that doesn't allow the kickstand to come out but has its OWN tent-stand (so the kickstand is moot) and I'm going to give it to my sister in Arizona (I'm in Massachusetts). She's been wanting something even more portable than a laptop to do impromptu browsing to look things up and so on... plus she wants to try Linux on her laptop but it's SO incompatible with Linux (F*** you, MS, and your monopolistic tactics with APIC). I'm guessing this might not be a bad start--plus she can video call me over Gizmo with it at home or out and about--plus MP3's--plus podcasts--plus her news feeds--plus eh whatever she wants.

Anyway... keep looking out--they're out there.. but I agree, it's getting really, really, REALLY hard to find them brand new anymore. I'm not pleased by that. Hopefully the N900 will be so convincingly good but still relatively affordable (~$400 is a sweet spot) that I won't care anymore. Here's hoping.
