ok so in the end Nokia acknowledged that it's their fault and they are repairing/replacing all the devices?
I want to buy one Wednesday and I've called Nokia to ask them if they know about the problem and if they will fix it, and they didn't wanted to answer me ))
anyhow, the problem with long waiting is restocking, you have to realize that Nokia wasn't expecting this to happen, so 100-200phones that need to be change right away is a big discomfort in their production line, which was set for a low number of devices/day. Because the demand form n900 isn't that big. I still have to wait for one since on the 4th of march it disappeared from the stores (recall or out of stock) and I have to wait until the 24th of march to order one which is supposed to arrive in maximum 1 week.
by the way, don't you have a law saying that if it takes more than 10 working days they have to give you the option to get your money back or a new device + extension of the warranty?
