Ok guys,
I just called Nokia to confirm my pre-order details.
I asked the rep if they got any news lately about the dates.
They told me November end !
I asked them if it was just another speculation or is there going to be some official confirmation of the dates.
They said its more than speculation but they havent got a specific date yet.
Infer what you can from it, or just ignore it like the millions of other posts regarding the dates
Seriously I couldnt care less now, tired of these speculations and Nokia's silence on it !

Ok, but that really doesn't TELL us anything. Feedback is important - great. Is this delay as a result of that feedback? If so what was/is the issue? If not - same damn question.
I really don't consider it too much to ask for some basic information for the investment of 500+ dollars. I am willing to put up with a lot if only they tell me WHY I am putting up with it.
On a side note the "expect it to start shipping during November" is yet another hedge bet. The keyword there is EXPECT. It gives them another out if it doesn't. While I am quite happy to keep my preorder at this stage, a further delay past the new "expected" date would definitely give me pause and perhaps make me go with something else while they fully bake the OS/hardware/whatever the hell it is causing the delay.

For those who think threatening to cancel your pre-order is going to speed Nokia up in their release, think again. What you are actually doing is bumping all the other pre-orders up on the list, as it were -- more available hardware, to be sent out to everyone else.
I would assume the issues are all software, as the loaner units in the field seem to be working fine (or I am sure we would hear about it, even from proponents of the product -- sometimes the harshest critics), they will get the software update on their units as the final product it rolled out.
Enjoy the wait. Makes for a better story when you get the device. Embrace the notion that Nokia cares enough to hold back the N900 until they make it as robust as they can at release time.

I'm really not that bothered. No actual date was ever given, so they haven't really broken it. Am I annoyed that I don't have my N900 right now? Sure. Is it inconveniencing me? Yes, I don't have a phone working at the moment.

Bei Vorbestellung ist eine Anlieferung voraussichtlich ab dem 25. November 2009 möglich. Dies ist abhängig von der gewählten Versandart und Produkt-Verfügbarkeit.
