Actually I can beat that Andrew... I'm in Toronto, so I had to go to the states just to get one. If you haven't been to Michigan, I don't recommend it. 
They're starting to appear in stores up here obviously as a reseller type of thing. I can understand phones being limited to regions given their nature, but a tablet? C'mon.

Ok... Now I'm pissed... I come over to this site and see (omg) the new 2006 OS is out!!! YAY!!! I rush to my computer and turn it on and go to the Nokia 770 software update authentification screen (nokiausa.com) where it says quote:
Download the latest version of the Nokia 770 Internet Tablet's software.
Latest version: 5.2006.13-7 (April 18, 2006).
So I rush and put in my serial number and start the OS download and patch my device... I turn on my device in much anticipation... sameness... without my files because they are now history...
I check back the website to the download page and it says the new 2005 update (wtf?)...
My conclusion: Nokia updated the front authentification page to trick you into thinking the 2006 OS is out because the version number (5.2006.13-7) has 2006 in it... Sigh... Now I feel like a complete idiot and have to install EVERYTHING again... Oh maybe I'll just won't use my 770 until the new REAL OS comes out... *Sulks in self-pity*

Actually I think I am still waiting for an email from Nokia saying the 770 has been released! I signed up again for the emails for the 2006 version but I imagine I will see it on here first before Nokia actually get around to emailing me themselves given their past efforts.

While I share the OPs sentiments, I /keep/ logging on and getting all excited - thinking that this is the "2006 announcement" thread.
Thankyou
