On a sidenote: Anyone know when Amazon's pre-order sale will end? Or anyone have an inkling? Apparantly the TMobile info will be up around the 25th..and I really don't wanna miss out on the pre-order deal if Amazon has the better deal.
Nice, my brother went to Maryland and sister to MIT ( total geek ).

Hi

I don't know what "few phones in stock" really means. I can't belive they really have them but I want to belive.....
OK, the truth is out there I'll call tomorrow and ask directly....

Okay this is getting serious now, I had a dream about the N900 this morning!

I dreamt that when it finally came out the screen was actually recessed and the touch screen far too sensitive so it was almost impossible to use, I kept selecting the wrong things.

I then grabbed a pre-production unit and confronted [some guy] from Nokia (who just happened to be in the next room) telling them how I much preferred the earlier units design than the final one, showing him the difference between them (I had both my retail unit and the pre-production one in my hands). But when I looked down I then noticed I wasn't holding an N900 pre-production unit but a different model entirely that also had a recessed screen, yet the Nokia guy agreed that he preferred the flush screen of the pre-production unit too.

I then went frantically looking trying to find the REAL pre-production N900 and came to the conclusion someone stole it. I then woke up and came on here to post my freaky dream.


Now what does all this say about MY sanity?

@mak, sonicer
When you talk to the call center they only tell you that they have "a few" in stock, then you order and get an email "Sorry, others were faster. Time to wait for next delivery: 10-14 days" ;-)
I stay with my current preorder and will only switch when the known good online shops here in Germany (amazon, t-online, alternate, technikdirekt et. al.) have it in stock ealier.

Bye

i already switched my order last week.
so my currently online shop told me last week via mail and yesterday via letter that the phone will arrive them on the 20th of october (43KW).
so, i'm already a little bit sceptical but i think they told me the correct date

@mak, @schnebeck: KW 43? Das ist morgen!!!! Für Deutschland wär's ne gute Nachricht! Aber der Nokia Shop sagt immernoch 30. Oktober, ob das auch für die ersten Vorbesteller gilt? Ich hab Ende August vorbestellt.

wär soooo schön, wenns diese woche kommen würde... ich träume jede nacht davon... xD
aber es wundert mich auch, das auf nokia.de noch der 30.Oktober steht, weil aus einer anderen quelle (typ, der hier in berlin bei nokia arbeitet) auch die info kam, dass es diese woche kommt...

wie gesagt, ich rechne momentan damit, dass ich am mittwoch post bekomme.

Befürchte aber natürlich täglich, dass sich die Auslieferung doch noch verzögert.
So wie sich der Shop bis jetzt aber präsentiert hat geh ich eher davon aus, dass sie verlässlich Angaben machen.
(und wie gesagt, bei zwei Shops wird seit heute unter Lieferstatus "wenige Stück verfügbar" angegeben, dass lässt ja hoffen)
