I had the whole forum refering to him as Biscuit. The n95 got named, (Godot because of the nokia delays..) but never really had the personality of Biscuit. My current device is 'That damned phone'.

I suspect n900 will be named Mo (as in My Mo) but I'll have to wait till I meet him. I'm still worried he might be travel sick after all that journey.

Thing is some people actually appreciate information, whether the informer is permitted to disclose it or not. Just because you get the random tosser quoting names off forums to the company doesn't mean that they shouldn't inform us. It just means that if people want information then be considerate to the people giving it to you rather than getting them in a heap of ****.

I guess the argument that 'if you don't want to loose your job then don't disclose information' still stands but if you don't get people who selfishly blab things out and ruin it for others then I really don't see the problem.

Yarr, that's very true. But then you get a barrage of posts questioning the validity of it all.

Planning to take the netbook to bed with me, so that if I wake up in the night, I can check tracking again, and see whether n900 has arrived at East Mids. I can't really sit up all night refreshing the page till they scan the barcode, can I!

Edit! One last refresh and yes! N900 is safe and well in the UK. I wonder how he feels to be on British soil. Do you think UPS will give him a cup of tea in the arrivals lounge?

(And more importantly, will they stick him on a truck heading southwest pronto?)

You can usually get some sort of validity without name dropping with good information. When it gets to name dropping stage then are the intentions to help or to bolster ego/presence.

virgin mobile are doing £5 /1gb monthly bundles on PAYG. sms "BUY DATA" to 789789. see?
