First off, great forum, guys.

I ordered an 810 from buy.com about 2 weeks ago, and I've been reading these threads ever since.

It kinda sucks tho, reading about this wicked device and not bein able to try the tips and tricks out.

So for now I'm just gettin my feet wet. I'll be all over this mofo once (if) it comes.

Tablets are now a rare species (no idea why). Be patient, and you will be rewarded.

P.S. I bought mine from Dell. Weird, but it was $40 cheaper at the time...

I notice that buy.com does have n810s in stock, but they aren't as cheap as the one you bought. I wonder if you're going to be waiting a long time for your tablet, because your SKU was for a special discounted price, which they have sold out of... I think you may have to cancel your order and buy the more expensive one.

buy.com: N810 for $250

EDIT: Aha, buy.com isn't selling this one, it is from "Electronica Direct" who are selling through buy.com's "Marketplace"... That's why it's more expensive, and why it is in stock...

If I were you, and I was as desperate as you sound, I'd just bite the proverbial bullet, pay the extra, and get the tablet

It's in Vernon Hills...What I did was called them up and said to put it on Will Call...If you do this tonight, I think you may have a good chance to get it in on the 7th like me...The location is: http://www.cdw.com/content/about/loc...rections.asp#7 And they did say May to me...but I knew this was a lie since I went to the store in the first place and they quoted me on the 6th...So, call them and put it on Will Call...

Well...If you do call and order from CDW, they should be able to ship it to you...My final cost is $240.18 and that is w/o shipping since it is going to the store...You say you only have 220 to spend...? Anyways, they lied about the date...but now it should be a better date...Let me know what you're gonna do...

Well...fyi...CDW is getting them in as we speak...And can only assume that Buy is getting them now because even Nokia had them backordered and they currently are...(checks...) still on backorder...Hmm...well, I wish you good hunting...
