The name says it all.

Yah, the online stores in Finland do, although they don't ship to Australia.

There's a guy on here who posted the link, he has bought products from them before.... He says to actually call them to get a better price than what's on the site. Can't remember the thread I saw his post in though, possibly the one about availability and pricing

Re: The White N9 thread
 
just got off the phone with a rep @ weelectronics.com

they are "expecting the phone next week"

i think it has been a week of expectation on their end already

lets hope they get it next week because i will be purchasing immediately upon availability :cool::D:o:cool:

yeah I believe you ask for Luis and say Ceroberts75 and he will help you out. Thinking about getting a white one too now that my black 64gb has to be sent out for repair.

Got the white one already. My wife gave it to me last Christmas. I was surprised how she got the local variant for our country considering it's not yet available here. I'm from the Philippines by the way.

Re: The White N9 thread
 
Sorry, no. She got it locally. As for the price, she wouldn't tell. Suffice it to say that she bent over backwards just to get me the white one when she did.

Mike, can you stfu for a while? I saw that this thread was active, hoping that someone posted some information relevant to the title, and I come in here to find out it's just you beating the same dead horse. I get it, you are super angry that your favorite cell phone doesn't do what you want it to. Cool. NOW SHUT THE FVCK UP and stop sh1tting up all the threads related to the N9. Some of us like the N9 and would very much like to get a white N9.

Well said! If you don't like the N9 Mike, then fine, stay away from the forum. But there are others on here, who like it/love it, and want to be able to share knowledge with one another. You clearly don't have anything better to do with your time... go get a hobby!

Yes on 28th Dec you could buy one in major phone shop in Hanoi for millions in cash :) (price in picture)

Unfortunately for people abroad, web shipping or even credit card payment is hardly developed in this shop so I cannot make any recommendation.

They have white 64GB N9s in the ZhongGuanCun Nokia store in Beijing. I don't recall the price...

Ok, located mine... in Dubai.
N9-White is selling for $789 by Jumbo Electronics. My spouse is bringing it while returning back end of this month.

Re: The White N9 thread
 
If welectronics sells it I will probably get it. I read in the other thread that negrielectronics would get it soon too. Not sure I want to pay $700 though.

I called Welectronics this morning, they said it's "backordered" and that it would be in stock next month.

They even giving lumia for free to foss devs now :@ and that mke me pizsed for ood reason. If white even comes out it will be very limited edition and overpriced:(

I've just received... them!!!
Due to an error during order (trouble withe bank transfer, not cancelled, and then Visa order...) at Digitech.ch, Switzerland.
They don't send out of Switzerland, but a friend who leave there received them for me...
It's no use asking me: it won't be possible...
As it's an error, the second one is on Ebay right now...:rolleyes:

No time tonight to search inside phone...:o
I'll post again tomorrow night...

Re: The White N9 thread
 
^ It doesn't come with pr1.2, it's only ever come with 1.1 (the 1st model to do so)
One lucky guy recently accidentally got 1.2, don't even think it was a white.
I hate you, we still can't get White N9 in Australia... :-(

@cevenn I see yours on eBay. Interested, but waiting 8 days for it to end will be hard.

Also, I see there are white bodies available from china for about $70, supposedly oem

Link to the body? EDIT: Nvm I found it.

How hard is it to put it on? I wouldn't want it to have bad fitment simply because of a bad installation.

are there any white N9's in or around Jakarta?

Use google translate - they state in bold writing that they have the white version as well.

Plenty of other retail shops have them in Vietnam too.

I haven't done it. Not sure who might have. Probably someone has disassembled one on video, they usually do :)

Re: The White N9 thread
 
Hi.
As my white model comes from switzerland, it doesn't seems to exist any firmware update to PR 1.1 for, so I decide to flash it.
It's a 059M8W6,so I choose 059L5D4 to upgrade it like a swiss black 64GB.
Is it possible to choose other country firmware than genuine one?
Should I try with black 64GB France one?

Most stores r keeping the 'Made in Finland' ones [all colors]. However, the Nokia retailers [e.g. Axiom Telecom, CellUcom] have a mixed bag - with mostly being 'Made in China' [and they do not have the 'white'].
