Ugh, I called Amazon twice and spoke to three people including a "lead". No, they are unable to change my order date to after the 15th so I am eligible for the rebate, nor do they have any info on the N900 shipments. I mentioned the manager Tanisha by name, and the gentleman on the other end acknowledged her, but said he did not have the authority to forward to me anyone but his lead, and the lead was just as useless. Ahh well, it was worth a shot. Hopefully the info on the Amazon preorders shipping within the next day or so is true there, I'll take the $50 hit if I can get it before Turkey Day.
