I went down to my local mobile store the other day and had a long talk with guy behind counter who looked up the phone... It had arrived at their home office and that usually ment (he told me) that they would have the phones within a weeks time... so that would put it in the store just before weekend or early next week...

Can fully understand you DiemetriX. This waiting is sooo frustrating... Not a day goes by where I'm not checking the net store, surfing Youtube for n900 (filtering by vids added today) going to this forum looking for Reviews, acessories etc. There are days where I begin to doubt wanting to buy the phone (especially seeing all the posts with missing audio in mic, black screens, faulty memory cards, people bashing the phone for beeing slow, laggy, faulty, not syncing well and having a bad calendar) I usually start searching for alternative phones... HTC HD2, the Droid, the Satio, the Omnia II, the ipho... nah just kidding

All theese phones look nice... have nice specs and alot of apps... but I have a Windows mobile, don't want another no matter how good the hardware is, Symbian seems outdated and clunky, Android seems well meh! and so I keep comming back to the n900. Something just draws me in... and I start seeing all the good things about it (well... seeing them again! and they far outweigh the negatives) and that is when I realize that I have made up my mind and the n900 IS the phone I want! So patience my young Padawan...

Thanks to all the good people on the forum standing up for the phone, defending it and dismissing alot of the negative things written about it...
For posting experiences, sharing the phone with us who are not so fortunate to hold it in our hands, and for keeping the hope alive :-P

*sob* sorry got to go... have something in my eye...
