That made me laugh for hours :)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Just got this:

Dear DDP user,

We are happy to inform you, that N900 is finally available in our e-store for ordering.

If you have not placed your order, please do so by Monday 21st of December 2009 !

Please note, that only one device order per user is accepted.

Kind regards,
Forum Nokia DDP team

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

me too finally!

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Same here. They just don't say what to expect/do for those who ordered a month ago :-)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Hail to the cargo cult gods! :)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I got the message too, but I already ordered weeks ago, when I could see the N900 in the list of devices (refresh the page and all that, if you remember). Presumably everything is in order then? No need to (re-)order?

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

They say my order is complete and shipped, allelujah! Openoffice.org you're going to be 0wnd soon :)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

They sent that mail to all users of DDP nevermind did you ordered or not.

It is probably their way to refresh "next week" cycle ;D

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Go to Forum Nokia, Login, Premium Services, eStore, My Account, My Orders, click on your order number for details - should show a status of "Completed" and a "Date Shipped" of today.

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

nope, don't think so, this time they say it's been shipped

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I don't see any 'My Orders' under My Account?

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Make sure you're in the developer/pro section of forum.nokia.com

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

You mean the one that says that Quim will try to help if there's a problem but he isn't guaranteeing anything?

If you mean some other post, please mention it. I am not prepared to throw myself at the feet of some demigod and beg for mercy, even if he has announced he is the merciful type. If my device doesn't work I want the right to replacement. If Quim announced that he would make sure that no one would be screwed by the lack of a warranty, and that was a promise, I didn't see that. I saw something that said he was NOT PROMISING ANYTHING. Did you see something else?

Edit: To make sure, I looked up Quim's last post. For your convenience, here it is:

"look, we'll just do our best on an individual basis, but we can't make any promises"

Do you think I summarized it adequately?

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I replied to their mail and they replied that device was shipped.

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Different "My Account".
Go to "Premium Services" > "eStore" (on second title bar) > then "My Account" (at top of page).

This should then take you to the:
"Forum Nokia Developer Programs Member Profile" page.
Look for "My Orders >>" under "Member Data" sub "eStore"...

Mine shows my order and reciept from November 09 but no update yet. ???

...and Texrat, maybe you should have started a new thread under "Ripping scabs from old wounds" or somethin' :p

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Hyperlink: https://pro.forum.nokia.com/getUserServiceOrders.do (Because the Nav looked different for me and it took me like 5 minutes to find it...)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Mine didn't yet ship, but what I like when looking at my order item:
"Priority: Critical" ... grin

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Yep, mine has been listed as "Critical" since November 10 :eek:
Maybe now we will be upgraded to "Intensive Care". :D

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Sorry, after logging in you need to go to Premium Services then eStore, THEN "My Account". Trust Nokia to have two "My Account" links on one site which mean totally different things...

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I've just received the DHL tracking number... (extatic) :)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Thanks, got it - the original 'My Account' would only show me a profile update page. Going to pro I had to login again (which it did just by clicking login), and via My Account there I found it. Not yet shipped though.

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I placed my order on 11/29 and it says not shipped yet. My status is also "critical"... :rolleyes:

After all, seem like Santa is bringing me a favorite new toy for Christmas... :D

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Just got an email today too that my order has been shipped via DHL, from Finland.

Shipment picked up as of: December 08, 2009 16:39

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I placed my critical order on 11th, no tracking number yet :)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Got mine today, as well.

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

You summarized adequately in your usual hostile, denigrating, negative, sarcastic, pointless way, sure.

Why are you still here?

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I placed my order on 23rd nov .... still not shipped :(

for those who got shipping confirmation when did you guys order?

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

@Sachin007: 11/9

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I also ordered on Nov. 9th, but still not shipped, only "Critical" :-)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Hrw: does your order at the e-store show "shipped"?

I'm wondering if the N900 is just going to start showing up on surprised people's doorsteps...

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Yes, it was shipped and order page lists it as shipped with DHL and tracking number is provided. Same informations were also sent to me by mails - one from Nokia Forum stating that device was shipped and second from DDP with information about DHL package and link to tracking.

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I'ts good to hear that they're shipping, and I'm excited for all of you. You probably deserve it and I hope it serves its purpose well. But I'm still on the fence because of the warranty issue. And only that issue.

I agree with geneven. We're talking about 200 devices at the most; possibly more like 50. It would cost Nokia close to nothing to give the DDP a proper warranty.

I too think qgil is a stand-up guy, but "take it or live it" or informal promises should only apply to auction sites and/or 3rd-party free software, not new hardware purchases, regardless of the program. Or maybe unconsciously the Nokia higher-ups just want to see which of us are real fan boys and girls, but I thought we already demonstrated that? Well, I'm not sure if I am or not. I thought I was, but thankfully I won't have to wait much longer to find out!

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I can understand being wary of the warranty situation. I fully believe in Quim, and that he'll do his best to make it right. But it may be out of his control, depending on the exact circumstances.

What I really wish is that T-Mobile USA was going to carry it. I'd put it on the 20 month installment program in a heart beat.

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Just got device from DHL courier. What is inside:

- N900
- battery
- nokia charger (thick or thin) -> microusb adapter (CA-146C)
- nokia charger with microusb connector (AC-10E) 1200mA
- usb->microusb cable (CA-101)
- audio/video out cable (CA-75U)
- wired headset (WH-205)

What surprised me was lack of printed user guide but I think that this is due to 'we recycle' slogan on a box so will dig for PDF on device.

And box does not have any 'not for resale' texts which Quim told that will be.

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

The printed guide is in there - it's black and lying at the bottom of the black box so you might not see it first time! :)

Bit of a shame the USB charger is a US 2-pin affair - will have to buy myself a UK replacement (not complaining really) or maybe a shaving adapter. Then again I've got a few spare Nokia 2mm chargers so could use one of those and the handy adapter.

Hopefully these DDP devices don't suffer from the reboot problem (assuming it's a hardware related issue) - I'm not putting any new software on the device for the first few days until I've confirmed it's a keeper and everything is in working order!

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Muchas gracias - it was really there.

I got normal European charger.

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I must have ordered a few hours later than debernardis on 11/9 : my confirmation email and tracking # arrived just before noon today.

Next challenge, DHL -- fond memories from N810 days :-)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

I just received a shipping confirmation. Now I just have to wait. :)

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

Yup... Me too. :)

Yippie... soup for me!

That^ from a recent review...

Maybe we're ready now.
I'm looking forward to the contributions that I'm sure will come. http://smileys.on-my-web.com/reposit...rinking-43.gif

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors
 

"Dear X Y,
Thank you for your order. This email is to notify you that your order has shipped and is complete."

Weeho! A device I will actually OWN :-)
