Depends where you live and when did you order it... Therefore, no =/

Selected markets are going to be releasing it before others, and they are shipping them in the same order as they were ordered...

USA is not everything
most nokia devices start shipping in europe first which is how 3rd party sites get them before nokia US does, they get theres from europe so not official US release.
you'll never see NAM versions go on sale in US before nokiaUS as them

The best option is to let it load and drag the progress bar along until you see something that interests you. They do give the device quite a thorough demo.

The reason I'm doing this is because I'm tired of waiting for the phone!

I've been waiting for the phone so eagerly that I've probably watched all the videos on youtube on n900 and all the links posted at maemo talk... I actually want to have some amazement when I get the phone. You know the feeling of not being able to control your phone very well, and not knowing what button does what under a different menu. I feel like I already know too much to fully enjoy all the functions that come with the phone/tablet...

My 2c...

I hear you there. I feel exactly the same. It only brings more pain to the soul not being able to have it in my hands. It's like Amber's song from a few years ago... Don't you know that when you touch me baby that it's torture. Brush up against me I get chills down on my spine.

canceled from buy.com because of this email reply

We apologize for the delay of your order.

However, we have received an estimated time of arrival from our distributor and expect this product to ship on or around 11/20/09. Please note that this date is only an estimate and is subject to change. You will receive an email once the product ships and your credit card will not be billed until that time.


and will order through pc connection when my bank is credited because they are saying that they have a ship date of OCT.22

buy.com's cancellation dept. tried to say that i couldn't because the order was in fullfillment. and i told them how are they supposed to be full-filling my order when they will not have the product for atleast another month......

they cancelled the order.:rolleyes:

Woah, woah, no one said USA was everything. You made that conclusion yourself.

Now I made a mistake of getting ahead of myself because people keep asking or saying that Nokia USA specifically would ship before other distributors. But in the case of NokiaUSA, which to me is linked directly with Nokia, I still say that you cannot always count on their shipment date as when other distributors will start shipping because it has happened in the past where they botched the whole pre-order ordeal.

I think we just have to be careful about which Nokia we are talking about and what the actual release date of each selected market was supposed to be. UK could release at a certain date, but it doesn't necessarily mean Asia or USA would release at the same time. Reiterating what Meng said a few posts back.

I had the same thoughts at the Summit before I got mine. Fortunately, the N900 will still beat your expectations :D.
I was and continue to be blown away by the capabilities and opportunities this device offers. In my opinion, it toasts everything else on the market.

The only explanation for this is that someone on here is not wishing hard enough for its release.

We have an unbeliever among us.

Now, you have one last chance. Confess the heinous sin of heresy, reject the works of the ungodly -- *two* last chances. And you shall be free -- *three* last chances. You have three last chances, the nature of which I have divulged in my previous utterance.

One thing I wondered about....I notice that Nokia are releasing their Q3 earnings tomorrow (15th October). I wonder if they have pushed the release back until after then to make their Q4 numbers more impressive?

Well if he's got an n900 his battery may not last all day ;-)

Re: Did Your N900 Ship Today?
 
I have never had anything but grief ordering from buy.com. I will never purchase from them again after , what I am calling , the saga of the broken and double monitors.

Also in response to battery lasting all day comment. If you read the power profiles thread - looks like battery lasting all day wont be an issue for 75% of users, those who use phone and internet a reasonable amount should be fine

Re: Did Your N900 Ship Today?
 
anyone else worried that by the time they get the n900 they'll have forgotten what it is they used to look at on the internet other than n900 related information?


on that note anyone have a list of the first things they're going to try when it's finally in their hands?

For birthday ? I would prefer an Iphone... cause it can also act as a candle sometimes ( and can also do scarification.... http://discussions.apple.com/thread....art=0&tstart=0)
