This thread needs a big fat DELETE!
Seriously, another thread claiming factual information that, like all the previous threads, turns out be incorrect. There should be an outright ban on starting "N900 is shipping on X" threads until Nokia release the official press release confirming once and for all the REAL shipping date.

Patience, my friends.
hmmmmm, patience is a virtue, but a little bit of transparency from Nokia is still preferred. Not sure how does their marketing guys justify their heafty pay packages

Well we did have a thread you were only allowed to post in if your n900 had shipped. And then one you could post in, so as not to discriminate. And then it all got faintly silly.
Basically, the locals round here are like addicts without their methadone. People are crawling up the walls, whimpering, shaking and becoming faintly psychotic.
I'd say this one could safely be merged into the Big Thread... there'll be another one of these along on the 16th, the 19th, the 29th...
You gotta give me my prescription. NOW

If I was a more spiteful person I'd recommend people away from Nokia products in the future. =P

The trouble is, given the way rumours go round here, if they said "We realised there was a problem with the gobbryfux, so wanted to fix that before release" there'd be 150 reviews, tweets, posts all saying " OMG n900 is crap - it has a fault in the gobbryfux!!" So they keep their problems to themselves. That not bad marketing, but rather best possible, under the circumstances.
It would be lovely to live in a world where people like Nokia could be straight with their customers. But this isn't such a world. This is the Internet, land of gossip, rumour, damned lies and release dates.
You have a 'rough estimate' - November!

Nokia will ship as soon as they can ship. And there's nothing any of us can do to change that.
Patience, my friends.
