I gave in, took the risk and threw money at Handtec.
I'll let you know if I get a cardboard cutout or the real thing this coming week.
And if I can tell where they've imported it from.
My bet: Kazakhstan.
No reason.

Which German site did you use?

It's what they said on Twitter. Here are a couple of relevant extracts from their thread about why they have not got the 64Gb model

@xxxxx Hi there, currently the N9 is not slated for release in the UK according to Nokia, hopefully they'll change this at some point!

@xxxx We have stock for our European sites. We wish we could get our hands on some for the UK! Fingers crossed Nokia change their mind

I ordered from this retailer, at the time they showed an 'in stock' message (now it says stock "available in a 2-4 working days").

However, there are some other German retailers currently showing stock, who deliver to the UK, such as this example of the 16GB model.

This Austrian company currently has 'low stock' of the 64GB model and delivers to the UK.

Also check these lists:
64GB http://geizhals.at/eu/654041
16GB http://geizhals.at/eu/654017
64GB http://www.idealo.de/preisvergleich/...arz-nokia.html

Obviously, check stock levels before placing your order.

Edit2: Shipping world wide is only 199 SEK ($28) without tax (iirc outside of the EU you don't pay tax).

Yeah, the ones marked "TRE" are probably locked to a swedish operator so better stay away from those. Here are the ones you want:

Black 16gb
http://www.clickok.se/PartDetail.aspx?q=p:4233464

Cyan (blue) 16gb
http://www.clickok.se/PartDetail.asp...233465;c:36176

Magenta (pink) 16gb
http://www.clickok.se/PartDetail.asp...233466;c:36176

Black 64gb (not in stock)
http://www.clickok.se/PartDetail.asp...233463;c:36176

Shipping world wide is around $28 so it's pretty cheap. This is not one of the biggest etailers in Sweden but definately one of the cheapest. I don't think they have that many employees though because they're known to not have that good support but I don't think they're going to screw you over at least. And if you're in the EU hopefully Nokia will support the "EU warranty" so you will never have to deal with clickok directly. And hopefully the 64gb model will be back in stock soon too.

Edit: About unlocking the locked ones I have no idea but I wouldn't bother with it.
