Since my N800 is still far from unusable, I chose the latter.

They couldn't give me a precise timescale for when the components would be available, but they seemed confident that it would be pretty soon.

Any comments? Is that consistent with others' experiences?
I took my device to the Nokia store in Helsinki on Monday, got it back on Friday the same week, exactly as estimated (with a replaced screen). This is a huge improvement to my experiences with the 770 repairs -- several weeks without communication and no time estimates.

The only thing I can complain about was the queue: I'd have thought it would be stupid to make people with broken phones crowd and get pissed off in a "flagship store"...
