Well I placed my order on Buy.com in February (during the backlog) and received it in April. I bought the warranty the day I received it.

For items purchased from online or offline stores, you can purchase a Care Plan to protect your item as long as the item was purchased within the past 90 days AND still has at least 90 days of manufacturer warranty coverage remaining.

Already asked, and no they won't. As long as you purchase the extended 3 year warranty before your 1 year Nokia warranty expires you'll be fine. The 3 year warranty no matter what, starts from the day you get your phone so technically after your Nokia warranty is up you only have two years extra. Just read the fiine print and it'll explain it all.

Well, I don't have any real problems with the N97, but when I did play with it (one of my friends works at a phone store, hence me being there all the time just to play with their phones haha) and the N97 didn't offer enough tactile feedback. It reminded me a lot of the Xperia X1, but the xperia had a worse keyboard than the n97 (depends on what you're talking about).

As long as I can type without having to look (after a few weeks of use) then I'm good to go I believe aside from having a decent layout, it's necessary to have GOOD tactile feedback and be able to spot-type without looking. I have the Blackberry Bold and I can't complain, great keyboard. I'm looking forward to a larger keyboard (like the N900).

I'm sure I can get used to the space bar and the period key's location. Time! I want my N900! Lol. Nokia is kind of slow :P I don't mind waiting as long as it comes out in top notch condition

OK .... They only cover 400 dollars, and the phone costs 600 dollars.... (in my case, around 840 dollars! = 600 euros). I would opt for a better insurance company. Does squaretrade offer Out of US insurance as well? :s?

Thanks

Someone pointed out in a discussion list at amazon.com that the UK site already has a shipping estimate: October 26th.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nokia-N900-M.../dp/B002QEBX5E

My bet is that the US shipping date will be close to it.
