Yeah right. You think i trust the mexican post office with a 700 dollar item and they won't hold it for a month or two? I've had plenty of coworkers tell me they send things down to Mexico or South America and it gets jacked by postal workers on the way and they sell it or keep it for themselves.
South of here it's pretty much all third world countries where corruption is rampant.
Maybe DHL would work but then it is a customs wait and fee I think. Personally I think maybe just craigslist "buy me an N9 and walk it across over to here and I'll give you 100 extra" would probably work out better.

I'll be sure to list that in my WANTED TO BUY ad on craigslist
"No waiting 2 hours in the border crossing car line with a mule with my shite stuffed up his arse."
Third world country does not mean everyone drives mules.

And WTF was he going on about WRT "a small group of obsessed people".
Man Marko, I thought you were one of the "good guys".
What he tried to say was.... "Just forget about MEEGO you OS obsessed people!".
Well, I know what he was really trying to say but Windows Phone 7 does NOT do what Meego Harmattan does does it now? and won't anytime soon. or does he think we won't notice the difference? He's on a different page here and I'm sure his answer didn't really convince anyone.

It would've been embarrassing for senior MS execs...
Because he was commenting on a key partner's as yet unannounced/released product, let alone one of MS's.

Nokia's slogan shouldn't be the pedo-palmgrabbing image with the slogan, "Connecting People"... It should be one hand open pleadingly with another hand giving the middle finger and the more apt slogan, "Potential Unrealized." --DR
