NOKIA marketing, communications and customer service - STINKS. (FULL STOP!)

Nokia are a bunch of ******s.. their attitude is seriously lame... first it takes over a month more to start releasing the phone then it was supposed to, now when they made the press release they act stupid and have no idea when it will be available in certain markets and it seriously pisses me off. My story from Czech Republic:

22nd September - I call Nokia, they sad mid-October
1st October - I call Nokia, they say second half of October
20th October - I call Nokia, they say last week in October
27th October - I call Nokia, they say last two days of October
1st November - I call Nokia, they say around November 14th
5th November - I call Nokia, they say mid-November and the phone is available for pre-order via their online shop
8th November - I call Nokia, they say late November
10th November - I call Nokia, they say second half of November, the N900 pre-order page was removed due to lack of units, Nokia releases Press-Release stating it will available in Czech Republic last week of November, the website states November 20th
11th November - I call Nokia, they say January 1st, only under 1000 units will be available for Czech Rep. last week of November for the pre-orders
12th November - I call Nokia, January 1st and that the units coming in November will be for testing software
13th November - I call Nokia and they say November 25th, but only a very small amount of units, other then that January 1st, they have a model in one of their stores, the other main store doesn't have a date and in one shop they have one unit as a promo.

What the F* is this? Nobody knows anything lol? Some people who pre-ordered will get it around November 25th and others will have to wait till January? What are they thinking? No way... and I like an *** help Nokia promoting the device on the internet for free just because i love it so much?

Nokia, we want more N900 units in the Czech Republic, now!

P.S. I had the model in hands today and the device is soooo small...just amazing..and sexy...

This is true, I was told MPD and the Nokia flagship stores will have two months exclusivity on the N900, so whatever contracts MPD will offer, that's it until January.

Maybe orders from Play + Amazon + Expansys, other retailers and network operators will not be fulfilled until January when the exclusivity ends.
Unless they get the stock from some 3rd party. I'm thinking getting from flagship stores at wholesale price then resell?

Expansys.it has just moved the release date from 4 working days to 15 working days.

I reckon this is because they just realised there's an exclusivity?

I think that they just realized that nokia has made a paper launch.

I'm afraid that no user will receive it's phone before the end of November/beginning of December.

I'hope I'm wrong, but I'm afraid I'm right

I really don't know how I've missed this exclusivity deal. I've been following various threads and never heard this before.
I am now very sad (pre-ordered from Play)

You may be right, since some N900s would have leaked through to consumers by now. If none tomorrow, Nokia is talking BS.

If so, is Nokia always this full of *****?

why do they announce shipping. when clearly their not. shipping is not on a conveyor belt in a factory in Asia

You could still cancel and go with Nokia Online Store?
Get yourself 25% off the £500? (I'm not sure if the 15% discount code still work though)
But you're saving 50 quid at least!

Bewarn Nokia Online Store has a bad reputation for their after sales!
