It does make you wonder.

The email says that they need to check if you still want the device that you pre-ordered, and to confirm that your payment details are still current. But when you phone, it's a different story: they tell you there's a technical problem with your order, and they need to cancel it and replace it with a different order.

Furthermore, the person I spoke to didn't sound like a typical call centre droid. She sounded like a well-educated office worker, and had a detailed and specific knowledge of the N900 pre-ordering process, situation, shipping dates etc.
