Re: Desktop Application Shortcuts and Downloads

The shortcut was to the installer for the widget. Once installed, you have widget but no need for installer anymore.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers

Ooh sounds like I had a lucky escape. Was going to go for the HD2 without even looking about until I spotted N900. I started to hear about bugs with HD2 and to be honest I've had enough after the HD1...

Re: The N900/maemo feels like a Dinosaur

Don't forget a lot of people just wanna be different too, no harm in that. Anyway, I hope you get a good price and the N900 finds a good home.

I'm off to dream of endless amounts of free stuff for...

Re: The N900/maemo feels like a Dinosaur

There is a hardware difference too. After a stint with a touchscreen device with no keys (Touch HD), a keyboard is a welcome addition; and I love the camera shutter.

A few weeks ago I'd have...

Re: The N900/maemo feels like a Dinosaur

They are two different devices for different purposes - period.

IPhone is developed to work easily by anyone - this is made possible by it being fairly expensive to buy initially, and by many pay...

Re: The N900/maemo feels like a Dinosaur

The N900 is still a baby don't forget compared to the Iphone. I'm sure it will do loads more once developers have had some time with it. It probably won't go mental-mainstream, so won't have...

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers

I think they have, and mine (if it does indeed come tomorrow) will have arrived on 4th working day after order even though I ordered when they were dealing with the pre-orders last week.

Yeah defo I agree they did well to focus on posting rather than posting (hehe - get it?). I reckon they are all up to date now judging by my update being effectively live. Can't wait for mine to come...

@stinger16

Mine was the same until earlier today I got e-mail saying despatched and status changed to complete. I ordered on Thursday so apologies I beat you to it.

Their system doesn't quite...

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers

I think it is standard for orders to go through a 'pending stock' status phase as mine did too but is now on its way. By the sound of previous posts, they allocate your order to a store to box up and...

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers

Yay I got a despatch e-mail and now 'complete' status. Does that mean it is coming today or tomorrow? - I could dash home and try and catch the postie!

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers

I think the New Contract status is pre-credit-check and it could just be they can't do it until Monday so I wouldn't worry. Mine wasn't done straight away, but was done early Friday morning - could...

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers

You can track your order on the MPD/NR site by logging in and going to track order. That should give you a status update.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers

Hi Adam, I ordered Wednesday night and my status was 'Pending Stock' the following morning. I think it only goes to that if you have passed the check.

No delivery for me or e-mails, though its been 'ready to dispatch' since Friday. I don't understand why they haven't posted it on Friday, but maybe this is to do with RM special delivery now being...

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers

Ok great. It sounds like the order tracking is functional even if it does require interpretation. At least now I can tell myself it is not coming until the status tells me so. Thanks for the info, I...

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers

You have my sympathy - I'm going nuts and it hasn't even been 24 hours since I ordered! Reading this forum isn't helping but hey. Just have to keep breathing and stay calm and patient.
