Aye, same here.
This is the first time I've ordered a NIT without going direct to Nokia. Though I do remember a bit of jumping around waiting for orders of the 770 and N810.
Although i'm thoroughly annoyed with MPD, i have to admit the delays originally where by Nokia, and MPD did send out one official email saying they will send the device on 3rd/4th... So technically - as long as i get it by the 7th - it's only their communication skills i don't like
(Same as any company really - well most!)
I'm happy to wait another week, as i've said before, checked out the HTC HD2, the Droid/Milestone - but honestly i can't see them fulfilling my needs like the N900 should.
- so in my case, happy to wait a bit longer until i think something better is out there

If there was an alternative then I'd already have it. That makes it more annoying though, bcos this is the only way to get one.
X10 was the only device that came close and that's not out till end of Jan and even then it could have similar delays with release.
The constant email checking is what's getting me, the fact that it could come early bcos others have there's.

Tried that and it didn't work too well, thank god I withheld my number and didn't give them my account number. Might have been pushed to the back of the queue.
The manager gave me the politician's answer of they are expecting to take delivery today and will ship out orders on a first order, first delivery basis as soon as they can.
Wouldn't be specific and wasn't too happy with my sneaky approach, i don't think!
I'll hold off till later this afternoon then ring to see if they have them as expected and press REALLY hard for tracking info!

Well that's just done it for me...
Cashclientel in the UK Release Forum got his, on voda contract, from NFS...THIS MORNING.
That means exclusivity on contract has now become a complete lie from MPD.
Anyone fancy going on the warpath against them!?

If MPD do not provide the contracts then its even worse, as MPD were outright lying.
Bottom line, the exclusivity is a lie unless they start shipping today as the stock used for pre-orders in store was supposed to be the same stock used for online orders.
