I'm torn between taking on a Vodaphone contract and waiting to see if the Tmobile ones reappear...
Any advice?

Me too
Surely it's more of a direct debit check (to make sure the account is real) than a credit check?
To ensure that the card is valid and it is registered at the billing address. This helps speed up the end process for delivery.

When do they actually do the credit checks on contracts? When you place the order or just before they ship it?

I went to the Regent St Nokia store yesterday and had a play with the N900. Asked one of the sales guys about contracts. The Nokia store are exclusively doing t-mobile and vodafone contracts at the mo. The phones should be ready to pick up on Thurs or Fri, but I've been advised to telephone in advance to make sure phones are available.
Otherwise, it will be late Jan before you can get the N900 on contract in a Voda or T-mobile store.
