Chat InformationThank you for choosing NokiaUSA. A sales representative will be with you shortly.

Chat InformationYou are now chatting with Davis.

Davis: Hello, welcome to Nokia. I am a Nokia Sales Representative, may I assist you finding a device today?

You: Hi Davis

You: I ordered a N900 in September and was told it would ship by the end of the month

You: I understand that it is delayed again

Davis: Yes it is, sorry about that.

You: so I am thinking about switching to something else

Davis: It will ship Mid November, we got an e-mail from Nokia.

You: Peter, the Maemo PR guy just says November

Davis: We are just making sure that this device is "perfect" when it comes out, thanks for your patience.

Davis: Nokia said mid November to us in the E-mail.

You: I suspect that it may take a long time to make it Perfect

You: were there previous emails saying mid October and end of October?

Davis: Well the actual date was End of October, and this is the first delay we've had.

Davis: No, the previous e-mail said End of October.

You: I am a software developer so I understand delays

Davis: Yes, it's already out in Europe and we are just making sure that it's completely compatible with US

You: I thought that prerelease versions were all that were out there

You: the 300 handed out at the Maemo summit and other developer versions

You: Do you have any info on the N97 mini?

Davis: No sorry, that device won't be coming out until the N900 is released for a few months.

You: There is a rumor that it will have quad band WCDMA

Davis: Really? I actually don't know about that at all, that would be pretty awesome though

You: yes it would

You: the biggest negative about the N900 is lack of AT&T WCDMA support

Davis: Yes, I'm sure it will come out with AT&T 3G support soon.

You: Here is the FCC app for the N97 Mini https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/...27QVVRM-553%27

You: So you believe there will be a N900 with AT&T frequencies ?

Davis: Yes there will be.

You: Is there a release month for the AT&T N900 ?

Davis: I have no information on that sorry.

You: is it officially confirmed by Nokia?

Davis: I've heard it's already on the market by other vendors, but I am not sure.

You: So you believe an AT&T compatible N900 may be available from other vendors?

Davis: Well that's what a customer told me, but I am not sure.

You: I am amazed at how little info you get from Nokia

Davis: It's just those things I don't know much about

Davis: Everything on our website I know though.

Davis: Unless they e-mail us the information, other than that I wouldn't know, sorryt.

You: Here are the specs for the N97 Mini from Nokia.co.uk

You: http://shop.nokia.co.uk/nokia-uk/pro...&culture=en-GB

You: they list 4 WCDMA frequencies

Davis: Thank you for waiting. I'll be with you in just a moment.

Davis: That is the UK version, I guess those will work around the world for 3G

Davis: I don't have much information on UK's devices

You: Ill let you get back to work

Davis: No problem, you have yourself a great day!
