There's two flagship stores, feeling more dense yet. I was pointing out though that if Nokia and NokiaRetail aren't linked then why are they listing the stores together? You say the call centre staff are lying? but anyone you speaks to tell the truth? stay consistant

and using your Coca-Cola analogy is that store calling itself coca-cola? no. its advertising there is a difference. there is only one Brit on this thread making us look bad.

The analogy he is trying to make was that just because something brands itself in the correct colour scheme and uses the right fonts, it doesnt mean its the real deal.

He may be wrong on the fact that there is one more flagship store, at Heathrow, however I think its a fair enough assumption that lots of Nokia staff may not have heard of one of their affiliates in UK, Nokia Retail.

Expected shipping dates:

Nokia: Now
MPD/Nokia Retail: 3rd December
Amazon: N/A
Play.com: 30th November (will be interesting!)

According to http://www.nokiaretail.co.uk/stores/index.htm it shuts at 9pm on a Friday. Perhaps I should have called the Heathrow one while I waited for my food to arrive at the office

Anway, fingers crossed I get it before Wednesday as I have a conference in Bristol on Thursday and Friday and it would come in useful for note-taking (via Xournal probably).

Can I just say a huge thanks to the mods for letting us keep this thread. It must be tempting to merge all the delivery threads into one. (One thead to rule them all..)

But this UK-centric thread is the only place I can bear to check. What with the cross-posting, people citing 'Nokia' 'Expansys' or 'Amazon' without specifying where they're from, and the slight... err... over-enthusiasm of a few people, I'm finding the other threads challenging. This one is more manageable.

I do wonder though - we've received a fair amount of information/dis-information along the road here: how much was from Nokia.co.uk and how much from NokiaRetail?

As far as dispatch: I don't think anyone in the UK has had a dispatch email yet (matching what Hannah said to me yesterday - next week, starting Monday, in reservation order). People in Italy and France have been notified, so we're a weekend behind them. But with luck the first fortunate few will have their n900s next week. can I put in a plea that they don't gloat?

The fact MPD sell other branded phones aswell Sony Ericsson, LG ect speaks for itself really. It is just a franchise but hopefully as the N900 front page says it may have first exclusivity rights with Nokia for retail.
Yes I have ordered from MPD and am expecting it 1-2 after the 3rd per the E-mail.

Trying to move on from the McN900+Cheese examples (Franchises) - been there on many a post - does anyone have any more emails, phonecalls, rumours, companies to add?

Expected deliveries:

Nokia:24th-27th November (It better be right!)
Play.com: 30th November (rumour/guess)
Mobile Fun: 30th November (rumour/guess)
Expansys: 2nd December (rumour/guess)
MPD/Nokia Retail: 4th-5th December (Email/guess)
Shop.co.uk: 12th December (50 units)
Clove: Late December
Amazon: N/A
Handtec: N/A
Oyyy: N/A

No it isn't nokia.co.uk isn't Nokia

nokia.co.uk is a webshop owned by nokia and outsourced to another company.
