Forge the cheap flip-phone. For the N9 price at Expansys you can buy an SGS-II to go with that netbook.

Hey guys,

I just stumbled upon this thread (didn’t read all 28 pages though!), and I think I may be able to help. I currently reside in Australia, but I was born and grew up in Malaysia. I’ve still got contacts in Malaysia that can possibly help if it’s going to be a bulk order.

I can possibly do that here in Australia as well, but seeing as Malaysia has the best prices (and I've got better contacts "Nokia distributor wise" there), it might be better for me to start there first.

How shall we do this? Gerbick – what kind of quantities are you looking at now? How will delivery be sorted? Maybe you can PM me for us to discuss further?

I see an opportunity for me to give back to the community now, so why not try?

For those who want to cut or buy a micro-sim please bear in mind there is an older type which will not work on the N9 and a newer type. More details here:

Is there a better way to indicate interest or be added to the list other than just saying "please add me"?

I'm interested in a 64gb of any color, or maybe a 16gb if we can get the price down to a reasonable point.

Also I'm assuming that the 'branding' any carrier puts on can be blown away with a reflash of the clean OS?

Thanks all!

You never know. About 3 months ago I entered security code to N950 for Track & Protect. Of course by the time I flashed the new FW some weeks ago, I had forgotten all about it. Upon activating Track & Protect again, the phone was asking me the security code once I booted. I had a hell of a time remembering what it was .

So, it could be that the branding is also put into a protected space where flashing doesn't erase it. Doing it for the security code makes sense. Some carriers might feel it makes sense for their branding too

I would think that it registered with a service using imei. That wouldn't change in a reflash.
