Sorry to hear that, glad it got sorted.
I'd take 'next week' with a bit of a pinch of salt. I'm hearing all sorts of dates.
Personally, my order is still ****ed. There's still a £1k hold on my account which refuses to go away, and Nokia thinks that the £800 transfer went through fine, but my bank can't even find any trace it exists.
I'm thinking of flagging the £1k transaction fradulent, cancelling my order, and just buying off Amazon or something.
"With regards to your email we have checked this and we do apologise for the delay. We are going to monitor this order and call the attention of the proper department to have this order checked"
Let's see what happens now.

They wouldn't admit it was the battery, they kept saying I was later in the que. I said how is that even possible when people who had ordered a week ago were already recieving their devices. Anyhow sent an email similar to your statement and a few hours later the battery came in-stock and the shippment was sent, battery included. I should have got express shipping and maybe I would have it for the weekend. I can wait until Monday, I have sooo many things to sort out. Including the maemo dev environment. if you chose to do so, hope you get yours repaired or replaced swiftly. If I have to get mine repaired I think I will lose it with Nokia.

So, my latest news.
I still have a £1k hold on my account from the cancelled order
shop.nokia.co.uk have no idea about how to fix this, I was directed to Nokia Care who totally and *utterly* failed to actually engage brain into gear and listen, and instead, repeatedly insisted that the order number was cancelled and that if I wanted to place a new order (which at no point did I mention), that I should ring NOS.
AAAAAAAAAAAARGH.
In addition to this never ending nightmare, they have no idea when my order "which will ship on the 25th, no worries mate, we've got plenty in stock!" will ship.
I've written up my complete story and will be giving it to the highest point on the phone tree that I can reach on Monday. This is just a total farce.

Update for those on the 2nd Pre-order as Nokia UK just called it. Just spoke to Karl at Nokia UK. regarding the progress of my order. At first he just said "I don't know" then he said "maybe next week" :-(
