So it is Nokia..who screwed up this whole damm delaying. Why the hell they do that..greedy bastards!! As if the phone have not been delaying enough...they ONCE AGAIN want to delay from the retailers...totally uncall for and they have the gut to make the announcement today that they're delaying the sale a week later due to high volume. 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.

Nokia Marketing --- what a bunch of DICKS!
With the epic screw-ups here, the Goodwill Move would be just to release all the vendors immediately.
My advice, don't buy from their Freakin' Nokia Store.
Frack'em!
I canceled my Nokia Store order 7 weeks ago. I figured why get in a rush(and paying retail) on something this bumbled...

It's totally legitimate for Nokia to limit the retailers on when they can start selling. They make the phone and they can decide who sells it and when.
The problem is that they are hiding this from the consumers. That's bad faith, because consumers that ordered from retailers have no idea when they will get their phones (which may be as early as next week or as late as February), so they just go over to Nokia and pay more, when they probably would have waited another week if they knew that's all they had to wait.
In this age of internet and message boards, this kind of practice is getting more and more dangerous and can backfire very easily. I wonder if Nokia sales people are thinking about this.

I agree with Les, Nokia really deserves to get raked over the coals for the way they are treating customers in all this. Where are all the people who said 'just wait for mid nov, nokia said it will be out by then' Well, its past fricking mid nov. If my buy.com order doesnt ship by Friday, I think I will cancel and order through Newegg.... they have always treated me right, I should have went with them as soon as they offered it.

I bought numerous copies of all the communicator series. Then went away for a few years because of clamshell problems with the communicators. Now I come back and have to put up with this BS.
If they had one clue in their little Pea Brains, they would contact their resellers and say let her rip! WE'VE SCREWED UP SO MUCH HERE, WE JUST NEED THE BUYERS BACK ON OUR SIDE!
How about it Peter, ya Dick! send a few emails. The only reason these are sitting in warehouses at this point is NOKIA GREED.
