jsmanrique: What else you expected from people tired of waiting?

Thats what I got from DDP - this time without asking them.

Tired of waiting??

It depends how much their time costs for themselves... If people don't like waiting, they could have reserved it on Nokia on-line Shop, just pay the 599 EUR and they would receive it soon (and with 2 year warranty).

If they are developers, they still have the SDK to test and create apps, so they could wait a bit for it, couldn't they?

Of course, some couldn't be developers, but just bloggers, and how many of them have expected a DDP from Nokia??? And, please, life is not always fair, don't compare among users just to see if you should be first in the list to receive a N900... Have you expected it? No, so, let's have fun, when it arrives

My firsts complaints weren't about release time (even when I would like having the N900 at home ASAP), but about not receiving any answer from Nokia. And that's a bad sign if you expect to have some "fan community"... But things seem to be changing

I got a similar mail this morning also. I guess they are going back through the list of people who enquired at least once since they ordered and sending this as a PR equivalent of "keepalive" or "ping" :-)

At least it's nice of them to do that, especially as the mails seem personalized and hand-written.

Maybe they're waiting for models that have working microphones. Which would make it worth the extra time.

Another working week is over.
No mail from anybody.
I have nothing intelligent to say.
Maybe I should only shut up.

Apart from this...

As the pessimistic person in me is always saying, they're waiting for people with defective devices to return them, then they're going to "repair" them, and send those to us.

Yeah, because these are developer devices and not intended for regular phone use, they don't need working microphones.

Hi, what's the problem with microphones?

There went my idea for 'smart application to take input from the mic' application!
