I am just surprised that Dells thread is so dead now and there is no shipping updates

Definitely expected an update this morning but looks like we're still in a holding pattern. Maybe later today...

I have had zero reboots or mic issues others have posted, but the GPRS radio and wifi are either buggy, or they cut the mW output on both to conserve battery power. Weak.

With all the negative reports about the mic, rebooting, battery life - on top of the horrible customer service from Dell its getting very tempting to cancel the N900.

i called dell yesterday, the lady told me they have a fourty five day lead time on the n900.

I'm assuming that's for new orders which would make some sense. I really hope that lead time isn't applying to pre-orders that have been in the system for almost a month now...

She's probably just quoting the 6 week lead time on their product page.

I wonder if the change in stated delivery time from "3-5 days" to "5-7 days" for ground orders is a byproduct of a decision they made to use the next batch to fulfill orders throughout the country rather than only to orders going to the region around the distribution center that gets the batch like last time.

Dell Should Push Nokia to send them out already. I do not know what is going on...


if dell doenst ship on the 8th...
ima think twice... its to long for a wait... and especially pre-orders...

why have pre-orders when your not geting it like a special pre-order item... SUCKS!!

Its tempting, if it doesn't ship by Dec 10th it might be worth waiting a few months until these hardware(or software) issue with reboots/mic is sorted out
