peter@maemo
i know your watching so please answer if you have any information

why all countries around germany/uk are shipping the device.
nokia.de support didn't told me anything "we don't know any other date than 25.11"

i thougt they are all shipping from the netherlands, so if the netherland/italy/france ships, why not germany/uk?

do you know what they say about flies and eating poo?

plus the minorities are always the loudest...

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Why is that everyone thinks that they were supposed to be the first? :)

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Quit replying. Seriously, Just stop. Nokia screwed up, they announced availability on a product that wasn't available the first day and the second day was barely available and the third day has still to come, people have the right to be mad and your just pissing them off more by protecting a corporation that doesn't care more about you then does us.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

thanks for this informative answer. i don't protect a company, that claim is really ridiculous.

i am just trying to get your eyes open.

but go ahead and continue, i can't make you stop.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

thx peter! going offline is also an answer.
can't believe it. just nokia style to ignore costumer?!

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Keep cool, the end is near!

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

hehe i don't think it is personally Peters fault.... He is just one man, and would be at work today i assume - so can't monitor all the forums all of the time. I'd suggest calling nokia up.... or writing a complaint letter.

I realise you are not going to get the response you want from them, but if you want an answer, you will need to speak to them :) - not expect them to reply personally to a forum post :)

If he does reply, i will be very impressed tho!

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Maybe because we were told that it was going to ship to consumers on the 16th?

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Open my eyes? Seriously? Did they not announce on the 18th that the N900 will be available for purchase? My eyes are open to see no valid date of release.

To Lie: an inaccurate or false statement. (I put it in bold just for you)

Nokia's press release was INACCURATE as I do not have my N900 in my hand. On the 18th it should of shipped, I should of had the N900 in my hand on the 19th as I have next day shipping. So my claim of deception and inaccuracy is a valid argument.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

You're wasting your time. I was reading through this bug report the other day and spotted a familiar name

https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5337

Remember: If you have a problem with Nokia or a Nokia product the problem is you . Nokia is perfect. All Nokia products are perfect, do not speak ill of them ever.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Not doubting you - nokia got it wrong :)
would be nice of them to admit it but they won't :) - they obviously have a reason for these delays, and they won't share it...

They should however have to answer for the lack of customer communication and phone/email skills!
:)

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

i wrote them 5 times the last weeks...they always answered with "copy&paste" from there web shop.
I called them yesterday. We guy was very unfriendly and told me that he didn't know anything.

peter was proud to tell us the "shipping" date two weeks ago so thought he could tell us "real" news that are important for us, the costumer

edit: peter was watching this thread while i posted my question

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

I think he's shot himself in the foot so to speak for getting involved...... :)

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

the way they ignore there costumer drives me crazy

hopefully the supporters there injured too

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!

MPD again I believe?

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Erm... So Nokia are basing their future market share on a niche product eh?

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

You NEVER bother replying. You just come out with some half-english nonsense that is neither useful nor accurate. That is why I accused you of being a bot, cos your "answers" are always far from an actual answer.

Please, feel free to point out my many mistakes.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Maemo 6 and whatever phone or "mobile computer" they release with it is the future of Nokia high end phone segment.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Actually your wrong, There is a reason Nokia is moving from Symbian to Maemo, the N900 is the flagship phone, the phone to bring them back into the market, the phone to release a old but redesigned OS to the market, Symbian is not very loved around here. I don't know anyone that uses Symbian anymore, maybe where you live people have little knowledge of high end smart phones but here in Texas a lot of people pay for expensive phones, whatever there reason is to buy them, they do pay the money.

Thx for posting this ....

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

I believe Nokia was playing down there expectations for n900 to cover there own back in-case it was a flop, now they've seen the buzz it created and amount of orders it took they talk it up a lot more now from what I've noticed

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

You know what would be funny ? If Nokia all of a sudden said something like: "We are sorry, but we forgot that the units we have shipped all have a crucial faulty hardware configuration. Unfortunately the phones have to be returned for furhter adjustments and the release has to be delayed. We are sorry, but you will have to wait for Nokia N9xx and Maemo 6. Ok, bye."

:D:D:D

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

I would never buy Nokia again just because how can I trust that in the future my hardware wont fail?

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

For the ones planning to use the phone on the 3 network, there is some light !

I saw this bug-update in my mail:
https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5315

Status RESOLVED, asking for internal testers to confirm the fix as often as possible.

It's going to be in every build based on or after 2009-47, whenever they make an official drop the the big public.

I hope that's pretty soon as my N900 has to run on 3 UK as of next week'ish ...

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Possibly worth remembering the fact that on 23/10/09 all blogs/sites reporting on the delay of the device release stated:

"Nokia's Flagship N900 Delayed Unil November (NOK)"

Now I wonder where THEY got the idea this was Nokia's flagship device?

:)

( Just to clarify, I am agreeing with you :) )

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Right, haha, the people on here make me laugh like they know everything before they research and discuss, they jump to conclusions. "Sorry no its not a flagship device because it's too expensive and it has a redesigned OS and it does everything plus more and ...."

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

All right so apparently, even though it seems some think the "Order" date is what will count in regards to the rebate, I have received a different, positive response from Amazon, in regards to the question above. Those of us that have ordered from amazon before the Nov. 16th date might not have a problem at all getting the Rebate.

The original message I thought I sent did not go through apparently so I resent it adding a question in regards to the new $529 price being reflected on my order.

From Amazon:

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

as i said, they drive me crazy, this from nokia support germany:

Wie in der Pressemitteilung geschrieben, hat die Auslieferung des N900 begonnen.
Dieses bedeutet, dass die Mobiltelefone derzeit das Werk verlassen und den Großhändlern, sowie unserem eigenen Lager zugeführt werden
Zum heutigen Zeitpunkt liegt uns kein anderer Endkunden-Auslieferungstermin als der 25.11.2009 vor.


As written in the press release, has begun the extradition of the N900.
This means that the mobile phones currently leave the factory and the wholesalers, as well as our own camp are fed
At the present time lies before us, no other retail ship date as of 25/11/2009. (translate.google.de)

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

What happens in the US has never been a big part of Nokias success. I live in UK and I assure you the British mobile phone industry is several years ahead of the US in terms of smartphone usage.
This is not phone to bring Nokia "back into the market" when Nokia supplies 40% of the global market and 50% of the smart phone market. Rather this is a platform requiring refinement before it will reaches the mass market in the future and eventually replace symbian for nokias high end devices.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Eventually doesn't mean that the N900 is not there breakthrough as a flagship phone into the new market of "Smartphones," Nokia has been hurting from Android and iPhone, even Blackberry. As I really don't care what they supply the N900 is still the flagship phone for Nokia, you can say what you like but the fact is infront of you.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

I don't know anything about the US market, but i'm hoping this is Nokias "Wake up call" - they have needed to do something new and fresh for a while :) - Open source is a bonus :)

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

they totally ignore what i asked, i can't belive it.
are there robots on the hotline?

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Did you think Im suggesting the N900 is a low end device in Nokias line up?:rolleyes:
The N900 is obviously a flagship device but its not the one that Nokia are relying on to generate the major revenue. The importance of this platform will only be realised in a few years time so regardless of what you or other disgruntled consumers think about a few week delay it makes not one iota of difference to Nokia as a company or their reputation among the mass market.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

wow, no i got a "human answer":

Da uns keine anderen Informationen vorliegen, können wir uns nur auf den 25.11.2009 berufen.
Ich habe heute nochmals angefragt, ob der Termin einghalten werden kann, worauf keine weitere Verzögerung benannt wurde.
Somit müssen wir davon ausgehen, dass die Auslieferung zum gegebenen Zeitpunkt erfolgen wird.

Natürlich entspricht dies nicht unserem Servicegedanken und wir haben Rückmeldungen zu der Verfügbarkeit an den Shopmanager weitergereich.

Der Termin hat sich für ganz Deutschland verzögert, genaue Gründe dazu, liegen uns nicht vor.

Ich bedaure Ihnen keine anders lautende Information übermitteln zu können.

translate.google

Since we have no other information that we can rely only on 25/11/2009.
Today I asked again whether the deadline can be einghalten, after which no further delay was named.
Thus, we must assume that the extradition will take place in due course.

Of course, this does not meet our service philosophy and we provide feedback to the availability of the store manager weitergereich.

The date has been delayed for the whole of Germany, precise reasons for this, are not available.

I am sorry you provide any information to be able to otherwise.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

Cool! Finally a human answer! thanks mak

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!
 

I disagree with you because the N900 has picked up customers for Nokia that it would have never seen with any Symbian phone, I myself have bought four. I have nearly 10+ friends switching to T-Mobile and purchasing an N900 which would have NEVER bought a symbian phone. That's enough for me to see what impact the N900 is capable of for Nokia. It's also not the "few week delay" that makes customers angry its the Press Release stating that the phone is available yet Nokia has nothing to show. I don't care if it doesn't make a difference for Nokia, I get annoyed when people come here or anywhere defending Nokia or any other company after the company has wronged even one consumer. It's also not only Nokia that has this going on, its nearly every company but people here are voicing it like Nokia is GOD. People not accepting that the Press Release was inaccurate is just sad. Fanboys suck.
