I would suggest that somebody bring this up to them. . .

I don't think the sales guys can actually do a lot about this. In fact, it might be fruitless to just send them complaints. Send them a suggestion.

Their sales division needs to talk with the IT gurus (who handle the system).

It seems that when the device is scanned when it arrived at the warehouse, it automatically adjust the N900 page @newegg.com to "in stock". This is why we hear that those that "add to cart" immediately when it's "in stock" @newegg.com actually got the device shipped.

As a result of that, a lot of us (not all of us. but im included) who "pre-order"ed earlier didn't even get the chance to be "processed" and they keep telling us that they're out of stock.

This is my 2 cent.
Hope it helps us all who preordered early. .
This is further proof that they are operated by monkeys. Writing an order fulfillment system is not brain surgery; I was writing this kind of code with proper error correction and dependency checking in the 80's on VAX systems, for God sake. Newegg just needs to admit they had an issue, issue an apology to the several hundred ++ people they screwed, discount the phones and get on with it.

MY 2c.
