When did you put your name on the list? I didn't think to walk in and do so until the 9th, that MAGICAL day everyone said it would ship. Funny thing is, when I asked him when it was shipping he said "Tomorrow!" and then looke dlike he felt bad when he said "..kidding".
Lo and behold, the NEXT day the N900 IS SHIPPING NOW LOL YAY! Press released was..released. Strange coincidence..
The guy said it was coming next month and this was around september *not sure when but around the last two weeks or so* and asked if i want to be put on the call list. And i said okay and when he was putting my information in on the laptop i saw only 15-20 people in front of me and the guy himself said there i was really early on the list. So i'm hopelessly eyeing my call log and picking up any number that calling hoping it's them...

Some of these CS stories are really appalling, my chat with some smug woman at the New York store included. The thing that sucks is the only way we can make a statement is to not purchase the N900 at all.
I don't really think this delay/shipping situation is really extreme enough to warrant that, but I'm really disgusted by this trend of trying to make everything exclusive and limited. It's a ****ing mass-produced electronic device. There is no reason I should have to pre-order it. I really wish people would at least stop with all this pre-ordering ******** and make companies deliver their merchandise to retail channels if they want to sell it.
While I will still likely get an N900, I would encourage everyone to cancel their pre-orders and just pick the device up when it's available if you want to get it. Buy products not promises.

Just to add one more to the list...my first hand experience of what many of you have been saying: Nokia customer service is pretty much a joke.
I recently emailed Nokia USA with some questions about the release date and $50 rebate. They responded that they had "no information" about either issue, which I kind of expected.
However, they then went on to thank me for my order - even though I clearly stated in my message I had not yet ordered from them. They concluded "I hope the information provided proves useful." What I'd like to know is how is "no information" supposed to "prove useful"?
I understand the use of form messages, but come on, other companies I've dealt with certainly do a better job than this. At least I didn't have an order canceled like some of you, that is ridiculous.
Sorry for the griping...
