Re: Did Your N900 Ship Today?

Just saw this at Amazon.

Item(s) Subtotal: $582.99
Shipping & Handling: $87.59
Super Saver Discount: -$87.59
-----
Total Before Tax: $582.99
Estimated Tax: $0.00
-----
Grand Total: $582.99

What the heck?
shipping is $87 (normal shipping)
and 2-day shipping is like $148 or something!!

and the cheapest (excluding FREE) is 1-day shipping which is around $19!!

What's happening with Amazon?? Guess, someone from Amazon has been reading this thread and trying to cash up on our impatience :eek: :confused:

Well if you're on the Amazon USA website and having it shipped to India then I'm sure thats why, otherwise if thats for US shipping I'm sure they are updating the listing and screwed up... it happens, we're all human.

I am shipping it to my friends address who is from Texas. So, those rates are for Texas and not for shipping to India.

Then it's an error on Amazons end, I'm sorry but believe shipping costs that much is a little overzealous. Just sign up for the free 3 month trial of amazon prime and you'll get free two day shipping.

For all cases of 'that one'. I'm fairly certain most of the (related and unrelated) internet has been linked to from this thread at this point, including the parts that don't yet exist.

I guess we all just have to wait for $RANDOM_DATE when the phone gets released to see which parts of the interwebs were correct...

Re: Did Your N900 Ship Today?

yea its kind of sad to me that they don't have a release date .. i for one know they are under pressure though don't care how big a company is when you have thousands of people anticipating a device they payed near 700 for you got to get it right....

I got this robomessage from Amazon today:

Quote:

Hello from Amazon.com.

We're still trying to obtain the following item[s] you ordered on September 14 2009 (Order# xxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx).

"Nokia N900 Mobile Computer Unlocked Cell Phone"
{link removed}

Still want it? We'll keep on trying. To keep your order for this item open, please click the link below. Otherwise, we'll cancel your order on November 13 2009, if we haven't located it by then.

{link removed}

You'll still be able to cancel at any time before we ship it. If you want to cancel the item now, please click the link below:

{link removed}

If there are other items in your order, they'll be shipped according to the delivery estimates listed in the order details in "Your Account" ({link removed}).

By approving the new delivery estimate, you are letting us know that you still want the item(s) though they may arrive later than expected. If there are other items in your order, they will ship according to the delivery estimates listed in the order details in "Your Account" ({link removed}).

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by this delay.

*****
WHY WAS MY ORDER DELAYED?
While we do our best to adhere to our delivery estimates, our inventory is constantly changing based on information we receive directly from our suppliers. Occasionally, unexpected fluctuations in supply, delays during shipping, or changes in release dates for new products will add time to our original delivery estimate.

No mention of any delivery date. Only the confirm by 11/13/09, which is likely just 2 months after the order. "Trying to obtain" seems a little strange too, since the order page clearly said it was a pre-order.

Anyone else want to read between the lines?

Since when is giving a specific answer the correct response when discussing the N900? I thought it was a requirement to be as vague as possible, especially when the question is even remotely related to the release date.

I heard that if you say "Nokia" 7 times into a mirror then an N900 appears but the battery only has 10 seconds left.

Re: Did Your N900 Ship Today?

Hi all,
I visited the Nokia Flagship store Helsinki today and tried the N900. Impressive piece of machine for sure.
Anyhow the lady in the store told me that current information they have is that the phone will arrive to the store in the end of October. So there is a few weeks left, at least for us who live in Finland.

Re: Did Your N900 Ship Today?

October is the cruellest month,
Shipping dates out of the dead land,
mixing Memory and Masstorage,
stirring Dull rootpasswords with first snow.
Maemo Summit kept us warm, covering Earth in open source evangelism,
feeding A little life with dried tweets.
Amazon surprised us, coming over with early dates
With a shower of rain; we stopped in the colonnade,
And went on in sunlight, into the Flagship store,
And drank Vodka, and rumormongered in discussion boards for an hour.
Bin gar keine Russin, stamm' aus Finnen, echt deutsch.
And when we were children, staying at the archduke's,
My cousin's, he took me out on a sled,
And I was frightened. He said,
Marie, Marie, hold on tight, your N900 will ship soon.
And down we went.
In the mountains, there you feel free with open software.
I read, much of the night, and switched my pre-order for Nokia on-line store.
I will show you fear in a handful of dust and cancelled shipping dates.

Do not try to order the N900, that's impossible. Instead, only realize the truth.

There is no N900.
