I've already had my card charged by Newegg when I ordered it a few minutes ago from the "Add to Cart" link, so hopefully they actually ship it out tonight.

Okay, now it's changed from "Preorder" to "Back Order". So I guess I'll be sitting here with my hands underneath my *** until Friday.

Ok, Fedex tried to deliver the nokia while I was out. I may end up missing this thing as they try to deliver again while I'm out of town. Maybe it's for the best though. I don't want to be dealing with a phone that could potentially be a lemon.

Just got off the phone with a customer service representative at Amazon's cell phone department. At first she insisted that the phone has not been released and that they don't show anything in stock. I politely pointed her to the fact that it was selling on a number of places, and that even Amazon had sold a few units.
Finally, she said she would put me on hold and contact Nokia to see whether the phone had been released. After a few minutes she got back with a slightly different tone.
She now conceded that the phones are sitting in Amazon's warehouse but said that they cannot start shipping them until they receive the release notice from Nokia. She also said that when she spoke to Nokia they said that the phone would not be released until November 30 (which makes sense, considering Newegg's dates). She confirmed that once Amazon would get the release they would start shipping.
She did not know (or at least she didn't say) how many units they have in stock vs. how many outstanding preorders they have. She did say that they were surprised by the volume of preorders.
I guess that's five more days. If nothing happens by Dec. 1 I'm out of here.

What the hell this has to do with delaying? You got a bunch of N900 sitting at the warehouse @Amazon...why not ship them. I mean if they're out of supply, then i can understand, but the fact is they're just sitting there because Nokia didn't let them SELL YET!! Totally bullshyt. The reason behind this is greedy bastard like NokiaUSA.com want to sell as many as possible @ a higher price.
