went yesterday to the store and they told me to come back on the weekend and never mentioned waiting list or something like it, called today and someone told me that was already sold out.
that is very disappointing, I'm flying back to Brazil tomorrow and will try to go again to see if I can pick one up.
is there a name I can give to get one on the waiting list?
Have a nice trip back to Brazil. Hope you get an N900 before you leave.

I have to say the line
"many (but not all) related to the idiotic lack of portrait mode"
does not suggest an impartial view.
