OK, that's a bit off-topic but does someone know when they will be delivered to austria or when other german resellers are able to deliver (especially computeruniverse.de is of interest)
Or to quote http://conversations.nokia.com/2009/...gins-shipping/:
When the N900 launches it’ll be compatible with most networks, although it won’t initially be available on new 3G SIM cards from 3 in the UK, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark and Austria – a software update is in the pipeline and is slated to become available before the end of the year.

That said, it's working fine on Orange's network in Austria.
Nevertheless it wouldn't be a problem for me @ all because I have A1 for work and 3, Orange and T-Mobile sim-only contracts to have some private fun.
The only one who is aware of shipping to countries with 3 networks is Nokia. Just think of the people who will then rail against Nokia. That would be bad publicity for a new high-end device with a new revolutionary OS. ( they know this from the past, I think
)I only wish they would have been a bit more authentic in giving dates. This - mystical behaviour - pushes the hype for some time but will then suddenly change to rage distress and resignation.
( I know this ... I ran through all of the above mentioned steps
)

Palm Pre is very slow from what I saw in the videos. But maybe IS an alternative. But I don't know if you can use BT for file transfers and the 8GB limit is...
iPhone It is a good phone. I had one, but you can only use it with a jailbreak. Otherwise you are fenced into a cage... a nice one but still a cage.
Motorola Droid Android is maybe a good operating system, but I had a HTC G1 an well... it will never have Android 2.0 or 1.6 so why did I bought this thing when it is outdated in 6 months?!
HTC HD2 Looks good, but well... I don't like Windows Mobile. And if you look at the cpu clock... it is crazy what power you need for running this operating system smoothly and well... I remember the batteries in HTC Touch Pro, G1 and HD... forget them
So only device left is the N900 and the waiting for it...

Guten Tag, Herr XXX,
und herzlichen Dank für Ihre Rückmeldung an Amazon.de.
...
Zu Ihrem Anliegen:
Gerne habe ich mich nun nochmals Ihrem Anliegen angenommen.
Wir möchten Ihnen einen effizienten und zufrieden stellenden Service bieten. Bitte entschuldigen Sie, dass wir in diesem Fall Ihre Erwartungen nicht erfüllen konnten.
Es tut mir ausgesprochen Leid, dass wir den Artikel nicht wie gewünscht beziehen können. Wir beziehen den Titel nicht über unsere Großhändler, sondern direkt beim Hersteller. In Einzelfällen kann es bei solchen Direktbestellungen zu Verzögerungen kommen
Derzeit kann ich Ihnen leider keinen genauen Liefertermin nennen. Ich kann Sie verstehen, daß Ihnen dies zu ungenau ist und Ihnen die Lieferung auch viel zu lange dauert. Es tut mir wirklich Leid, Ihnen in diesem Fall keine konkreten Informationen zukommen lassen zu können und bitte um Ihr Verständnis.
Sollte Ihnen die Wartezeit zu lang werden, können Sie den Titel online über "Mein Konto" stornieren.
Genauere Angaben oder eine Liefergarantie können wir nicht geben. Wir verstehen natürlich, dass das im Einzelfall etwas unbefriedigend sein kann. Es tut mir wirklich Leid, Sie diesbezüglich vertrösten zu müssen.
Herr XXX, ich möchte mich noch einmal für die Unannehmlichkeiten entschuldigen. Der Vorgang entspricht nicht dem Service, den Sie zu Recht von uns erwarten dürfen! Es würde mich freuen, wenn wir Sie bei nächster Gelegenheit vom Gegenteil überzeugen dürften!
Ich bitte um Ihr Verständnis und wünsche Ihnen noch ein schönes Wochenende.
...

What I'm interested in is... seems like every country is being offered some rebate or discount through the online Nokia store for whatever reason. Is the online Nokia Germany shop offering any special offer or something to reward us for our patience and understanding?? I'm to the point where I will cancel my Nokia pre order and go to yagma.com or some other online handy shop where I can save €100 but get it later.

data transfer only with Apple Software,
no expansion slot for sd(hc) or other cards,
....
I do have a G1 (developer edition) and I was running 1.6 for a while, but then switched to cyanogen mod where most of the 2.0 feature are ported to G1
Last but not least ... Windows phones (till 6.5 so far) are a no go for me ... and I don't think this will get better with version 7 / only home screen look nice and is finger-friendly

I first ordered at cyberport and changed to computeruniverse on the 16th of oct.
They told me 2 times to cancel my order and keep telling me they don't know anything.
We'll see ... I'm sure the N900 is the far better device than the Droid.
I just bought it because the N900 is not available by now (and nobody knows when) and I need something to play with in the meantime.
Maybe the waiting will have a lucky end soon since the 3 sim bug is told to be resolved.
