First of all, forget about CPW, you will not be able to buy this phone from anyone but Nokia/mpd ON CONTRACT this side of xmas. They might be advertising it, but they won't have it before next year.

I was going down there to cancel my MPD order and re-order in sore with a vodafone contract. While he was willing to do this for me, I was advised that it would not get me the phone any quicker as any stock that came in was reserved for pre-orders, and this is where it gets interesting.
Last Fri, they were expecting in a delivery of 1000 n900's, they got 100!! These units went on clearing some of the backlog from the september pre-orders. Now the guy claims that they are operating a first come first served process, not just for the people who ordered in person, but for the online orders as well?!? The stock coming in from Nokia is going to those who ordered in store and those that ordered online through MPD on a date ordered basis...

Can anyone confirm who picked their phone up last weekend whether they ordered online from MPD or just in store???

He claimed that the delivery date of the 4th is still on, not because he knew the stock would be in, but because Nokia themselves have been widely publicising the 4th as the release date and it would be a PR disaster if they fail to meet that.

His best advice for me was to wait until Thurs night, they would know by then whether the order was in, how many units etc and then make a choice over whether to switch to vodafone or not. His personal reccomendation was to wait it out, as I would not be able to get as good a deal as my t-mobile deal through vodafone.
He (obviously) blamed Nokia, as they were not meeting their shipments and the deliveries that were coming through were 10% of the amount that had actually been ordered

What I can do is pop in there Thurs night and give you guys a heads up on whether they have had a delivery or not and then you can take it from there..
I ordered on 20th, Sep from MPD. I would think I am one of the top 100 orderers as MPD started their pre-order page on 18,19ish. So I don't trust them for what they said that they have already got 100 units arrived last week.

At some point I think a lot of MPD need to face facts and stop linking Nokia to mpd/nokia*RETAIL* when you need to whine.

Those companies have nothing to do with nokia. You know it, I know it, we all know it.

It's starting to look kind ridiculous. If you want the N900 from a honest retailer with a good selection of contracts go here www.carphonewarehouse.com/

Because blaiming the nokia, the real nokia found at http://www.nokia.co.uk/ when everyone (including myself who ordered in november) who ordered through them has received their N900's.

Blaming them for the lies of Mpd and their affiliates throw out every week or so is starting to look a little ******ed.

They've just admitted to me that their stock has still not arrived and they do not know where it is.

Apple pirates nicked the n900 cargo ship which was on the north sea, stole the n900's, reverse engineered them, and came up with the i-mac
