I really doubt Amazon can do anything about the rebates since rebates are from manufacturers...we can always hope

True though they could always take the price hit of the rebate themselves. That is knock off 50 dollars for every pre-order not sent by Jan 7th. But then again that would probably be to much in the name of customer service (in which Amazon has nearly burnt up most of my positive expectations of Amazon's customer service). Which is quite sad..

Amazon preorders will begin shipping Monday. Word from an insider. I expect mine in the morning, too. So I'll have TWO N900s to play with! If my "source" is right. She usually is. Says Amazon's had the devices for weeks, just couldn't ship yet.

So congrats, thread. We can stop crying to each other and talk phoneputer talk. I'm willing to bet Amazon sold more than anywhere else, so look for the forums to blow up Monday afternoon.

Haha, well christexaport, I hope your right. Though I'm a pessimistic =P, so I just don't think they have enough stock from the first shipment to cover all the pre-orders.

Someone else said that they have only 179phones left from over 2k more orders in stock. So... Tomorrow we will see.

Yeah totally agreed, Amazon only got about 140 Items left and the order is over 2000 devices lol. How is that going to make this thread die? unless they removed the Pre-order button and then shipping everyone one by one

hey all just wanted to tell u my friend got his N900 which im typing this msg wiz mm so far so good but have many bugs too btw im waiting for mine is processing on amazon ordered it from 15 october and changed the price to 529$

Shipment #1: Not Yet Shipped
We'll notify you via e-mail when we have an estimated delivery date. You can cancel at any time.

So much for shipping on Monday like "christexaport" said lol
If it is meant to be shipped this Monday then my status should be changed already. lol. Your information is "FAILED". I bet get a gun and go back to who ever told you that and force it out of them before you say that Monday this or that.

Well i know this is a little off topic.... but I tried to order from NokiaUSA, just for the hell of it and my CC was declined twice and my Debit once.....but all of the sudden I got a call from my CC company asking for my authorization on the first CC charge. I said sure, authorize it.

The thing is, I have no order confirmation from Nokia.... so I do not know if I'm actually going to receive the device.... and no order # etc. So I emailed nokia to see if they could let me know whether or not I actually bought the damn thing.

Then, if I did, I have to decide which order to cancel....Amazon or Nokia

EDIT: WTF..... now the 636 or w/e dollars just disappeared from my debit account. Please do not tell me that I just bought two phones from Nokia. AH THIS IS TERRIBLE

@maxximuscool - Wouldn't it be Monday US? I mean you are in NZ and you had a family member in the US order correct? Still a chance the source could be good.

Also that 179 number being floated around doesn't sound right. I mean Amazon would receive less inventory than the two US Nokia stores? I don't buy that.
