For all the people who are completely slamming Nokia for a delay of less than a month, and for all the people who say they "know how business works" and so forth, here's a dose of reality.... wait for it.... delays happen all the time across all industries, so get over it.
So while it's nice that you managed to think up three random examples of three other products out of the range of millions of products you'll also likely discover something else: with Nokia this is common to all their products. It's business as usual for them. Everytime they release a product it's the same mess. This is not a one-time mistake or an error or an oversight it's what they intended to do.

Wow really? I thought this was just a one time thing from Nokia. So everytime they release a product like this it's the same cycle?

damn it, I thought the wait would finally be over soon with the anouncement of the shipping, but I guess I was wrong. I Preordered from amazon Germany in the beginnig of September. After the press release I mailed them and asked If they have any date when they can start shipping. guess what they told me: "we are sorry but the device isn't released yet, we don't have any shippment date from Nokia and will inform you as soon as possible"
So if not even one of the biggest online seller has any clue of a date when they will recive shippment from nokia it somehow makes me loose my hope that I will recive my N900 this year...

Yesterday I wrote a letter to hoh.de asking how long would it take if I order and pay on monday.
I did not get a reply, however they changed availability on the website from "end of november" to "start of 2010". grrr
Anyways I dont care. I dont like umlauts anyway so i will order from UK. Anybody have any experience with expansys UK?

Peeps,
After reading the last few pages of posts it looks like you are all in the same boat as us here in Sweden. Only difference is you are expecting your shipment they day shipping was announced. Here in Sweden the day of arrival for purchase/fulfill preorders is week 49 (30th Nov onwards) now taking that into consideration I don't think all people in Sweden will have their device that week. I have a feeling the product manager for Sweden was making a more of a guesstimate date for mass release for the Swedish market. I also have a feeling Nokia is making sure it has the device ready for mass release. Shipping only means that.... "shipping" not delivering or recieve at online store etc.... seems like mass release. Still gonna wait patiently nothing else I could do.
