To my surprise, I just got a reply fromt he Salisbury Nokia Retail Store concerning my earlier email asking if I could do an in-store connection on Friday and cancel my web order because it isn't being shipped to my current address;

Hi,

Thank you for your enquiry regarding the order of your N900.

For security reasons we are only able to dispacth the handset to the address used for the credit check.
I cannot confirm whether or not we will have the stock available, at this time. With this in mind i would not suggest cancelling your web order
with a mind to doing a connection in branch as this may cause further problems.

Which network are you using currently and on which network are you connecting the N900?

Kind regards

Sent an email back saying I'm just upgrading on Vodafone - maybe it will be a simple thing to do in store on Friday and I will have it the dat after tommorow?!

I can only dream...
