Amazon might already have them in there warehouse. A friend of mine ( who works for Amazons marketing dept ) couldn't come out and say it directly but he hinted that if all goes well people should start enjoying there devices before the end of the month....which is only three days away! I hope he's right, I've got mine on overnight shipping ( only $3.99 with 3 free month trial of Prime) IMO the Nokia N900 is the 1963 Aston Martin DB5 of phones (which is a good thing if you know your cars and what I'm talking about) and the iPhone a Ford Pinto....have an iPhone and I hate it, can't wait till the N900 gets here.
