Still want it? We'll keep on trying. To keep your order for this item open, please click the link below. Otherwise, we'll cancel your order on November 30 2009, if we haven't located it by then."

I am in for the long haul, so I approved the delay. What can I say? This is the device I want. I wish it was here already, but like a good piece of art, you just can't rush it. Now, if it comes with Documents to Go out of the box, all will be forgiven.
While most vendors are going with a 'best guess' on supply date, Amazon has opted for a 'worst case' approach. Unless Nokia set it back again, 30th November should be the absolute latest it shows up. Amazon UK are saying much the same.

NokiaUSA still says that it'll be availible by the end of October 2009. It's a shame that Nokia never updates their product pages... if I remember correctly, the same site says that N95 only supports up to 2 GB microSD-cards, which obviously is a joke. Nokia's whole consumer support is a joke as well. Are they trying to lose N900 purchasers, or what?

Here, check it out yourself:

I've been testing hard, so hard that I now have a device that doesn't work anymore (see https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6014). Would it be possible for Nokia to provide people who bricked the device with an image to reflash the device? (Before the N900s are shipped that is.)

thanks,
Kasper

You are absolutely right. I wish I had a bricked N900! Just think of the fun he had getting there! I mean, that's how we all learned Linux in the first place, ehhh? I fully expect mine to get bricked at some point.

He's got the wrong thread to be cryin' in though. He's cross posting as well.
