Our web team are doing all they can to respond to individual emails and calls, but if you have already received an email advising that your N900 is ‘ready for dispatch’ you should receive it tomorrow Friday 11th December by Royal Mail Special Delivery.

If we have requested from you more information or a PAC code in order to complete your order which you have not yet sent, please contact us by email at webshop@nokiaretail.co.uk clearly marking your email; ‘More Information’ or ‘PAC’ plus provide your order number.

Again, please accept our sincere apologies for the delays in shipping your N900.

Kind regards

Ahem.
Ordered on the 17th of November, contract, porting from O2, only received the one email from MPD, text message from Vodafone to my O2 number this morning.

Only just switched it on, so I'm off to play with it now. Hope all those still waiting need wait little longer. (As opposed to much longer)

ETA: I've since discovered MPD sent an email this morning confirming it had been posted.

I just spoke to the Manchester store, he said that they are around half way through their n900 PORTS preorders already.

Just got off the phone with David Urch (Webshop Fulfilment Manager)

1) All Nokia N900's have now been dispatched to stores.

2) The stores are working till 10pm today and 10pm tomorrow to have all phones sent out.

3) We should all recieve them tomorrow or on Saturday.

4) Just to save his back, he said although it may be Monday at the latest.

5) MPD did send the phones to the stores on a first ordered basis. However some stores were quicker than others to dispatch the phones, hence the mix up in the que.

6) He apologised to everyone here!

Right, off to work now

Maybe what I should have said is more respect.

Karl has already posted on the forum apologizing for the delays many of us experienced. I thought that was decent of the guy to do that and hence earned some respect from the people on this thread.

However, it would have been much better if Karl or a representative from MPD posted this information directly to the board instead - it's would be good public relations to do this.
It would have been better doing it this way rather than to be announced by a third-party (Young_mario and now a few others) means many people would not have known.

I have not been sent this email and would not have known about the current developments.

To be fair, initially I did not blame MPD for all the problems they have with the n900.

I blame Nokia for the delays - the constant changing of the release date of the n900 meant is was extremely difficult for MPD to plan or implement any kind of delivery strategy.

That's kind of annoying as I ordered many moons ago, but oh well, I'm happy for you too I guess..

Cheers mate, I'd be the same if I was in your boat. Can't wait to get my hands on it.

On another note any good deals on memory cards that will fit in the phone? Got a hell of a lot of music to put on it

32gb internal will do until 32gb memory card surfaces
