Delivery of Nokia N900 stock into our Nokia stores has unfortunately been delayed by two weeks to w/c 16th November. The delivery when it arrives will be the first N900 stock in the UK and orders will be dispatched on a first ordered, first serve, basis directly from our Nokia stores.

I got the above yesterday (before MPD sent the similar email out today). A day or two after the 16th would be my guess... Who knows though I'm hoping it's Friday the 13th

So what's this HTC Leo thing like?....
I reckon they have just maxed out their preorders and have no clue when they will be able to order anymore for now.

I would email / call them about it though...

With so many apps and libs still needing to be optified I am not surprised that they pushed the day back. I mean, if that is not ready many other things could be still half baked as well. I am really happy that Nokia had the courage to delay the thing. I just hope that when they do release it it is able to fly and that the experience is a good one, especially for all the people I have steered into getting it.

I called this morning and they swore blue they would dispatch on Monday. As nokia themselvs aren't dispatching till the following week, I don;t really velieve them.

I tried calling this evening and got held in a very long queue (and gave up). I will see if they email over night,, and maybe call again in the morning.

Optification of apps in Extras is a community effort with help from select Nokia folks, with minimal impact on Nokia's release schedule, so don't jump to conclusions based on that. The N900 will ship when it ships regardless if next weekend I go to a pub with my buddies or spend that time on the testing (optification check including) marathon

I've got a pre-order with Amazon.co.uk (from 17th Oct) and it still shows an estimated delivery time of 2nd November.

Something I found a bit bizzare was that the original Nokia Pre-Order flash advertisement on Amazon's site used to take you to the Amazon pre-order page and not Nokia's.

However the same style advert for the N97 Mini would take you to the Nokia.co.uk website for the pre-order.

I really hope that Nokia and Amazon teamed up on this and Amazon have now reached their pre-order quota.

If not then the Sony Ericsson Rachael (X10) is looking like a mighty alternative, announcing on the 3rd Nov.

Can you refresh and view your order? My order page has changed - I can no longer specifically view that order: just my general orders list. I have a nasty suspicion Amazon have cancelled all orders.
