Re: How to get Nokia n810?

I can send you a certified check for $17,871 (it's a long story) you can cash it and send the rest back to me, and you can pay cash for your IT. There's just one catch...;)

1. Buy a VISA gift card for cash and then use that to purchase your N810 online.

Good Luck!

VISA gift card doubles as a credit card in terms of how you use it check out online - just checked this. Just need to know your debit number and that 3 or some number number onthe back.

Google Checkout account needs a credit card it seems, correct me if im wrong.

Looks like I can get my n810 once i find enough cash... maybe i should get a n800 first because im impatient. dreaming of getting one for like 9 months.....

Re: How to get Nokia n810?

Google Checkout don't support VISA issued china. The credit card issuaed china is limited for the online shop in US. Maybe the chinese card is difference.

Just Amazon.com accept my card. I have confirm this point by email. The price is 391 in Amazon.

Thank everyone for the help!

If you're still in the Herndon area, MicroCenter in Fairfax has the N810 and N800 in stock last time I was there - which was about a month ago. Here's a link to the store info and the phone number:

http://microcenter.com/at_the_stores/fairfax.html

(703) 204-8400

Call them up and see if they still have them. Price might be higher than the best online deals, but at least you can walk out the door with one in your hands!

- the best part was the yellow-tag area... scored some great deals on electronics tools (which i still use today, nearly eight years later), and built up my collection of still-in-the-shrinkwrap commercial Linux software (Loki games, Quake, Tribes, etc.)

(i figure that 10 years from now there will be a powerful enough x86 emulator on a handheld to allow me to install and run some of the games)
