I've just cancelled my N900 pre-order on Amazon
and pre-ordered the Motorola Milestone,
which supposedly is the GSM version of the Sholes,
at this online shop:
http://www.hotlinegmbh.de/onlineshop...E-schwarz.html
It's supposed to be available in Mid november.
we'll see...
The sholes has the more attractive hardware and I hope
people will port Maemo to it (the same chipset) in the future.
