Worked beautifully!!
I canceled my Nokia order and ordered from Amazon:
$588.99US
$ 15.99US Shipping (Overnight)
================
$604.98 Total
A $100 savings from the Nokia store. Not too concerned if I have to wait longer(should that be the case).
Thanks for the great info. and phone number.

wow even better on this site 498.99 is that a typo, i hope its a typo, I have never heard about this site though.
oh well I have already placed one with amazon I think I will stick with that. But the pricing on this is the best you can find. But this says expected delivery october 29th.

It seems I can't even try to choose i shipping method on the google checkout page and thus I don't know how much cheaper it would be than expansys...

What was the procedure you used? I'd like to do the same and it would be helpful to have a cookie-cutter pseudo-script to go by given the difficulties folks have had in the past. Thanks in advance
Edit: just called and cancelled. Just to be sure there wasn't some "competitive vendor" anti-cancel clause, when they asked me the reason for cancelling I told them it was the lack of MMS capability LOL. For those who were following the N900 v Iphone thread, you'll find that amusing/ironic.

Got to resist the urge ... I keep opening the Amazon page and have to force myself to close it back. I want to wait for prices to fall further - maybe a month after release I will jump in.
Does anyone thing one month (after release) should bring it closer to $500 or sub $500 ?
