If you use Opera, you can set the page to refresh at x amount of time, just have to go to the page to check whenever you want. No need to F5 :)
I got mine to refresh every 20 seconds lol

Looks like mine is behind, just had arrival scan at Cologne at 0:43! So much for express delivery. UPS page says saver!

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
How safe is it to post tracking number without compromising too much privacy?

You can only see who signed for it and its delivery area?

Instead of everyone just posting their updates, we'll just get everyone's tracking number and track them ourselves..

Hope it's not another cock-up with their system.

UPS Saver = Nokia Standard
UPS Standard = Nokia Express

lol

I've no idea where you got that from:

http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/shi.../standard.html
Rely on guaranteed economical ground delivery for your less-urgent shipments

http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/shi...ide_saver.html
Meet delivery requirements with this guaranteed, afternoon delivery service

ShutUpYouFace 2009-11-25 00:55

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
Judging from the last time it said Exception, it seems it's just what it says while they are waiting for the next action.. Probably waiting for it to be loaded or go somewhere.

That's my assumption Nokia has a cock-up system, I'm not saying that's the case.

And the links you're given are for Worldwide, not EU specific.

See http://wwwapps.ups.com/maps_europe?l...&WT.svl=SubNav for EU transit time.

Although I trust the Schedule delivery date they gave on the tracking page.

Some people have express on their tracking service and they are the ones that are in the UK already. UPS says they are prior to midday delivery. So to me that looks like we got the bum deal.

I wouldn't think so.. For example kathy was complaining before that hers said Saver yet she reported her as being in the UK before she headed off..

Couple that with what the scheduled delivery date was showing when it was showing, it said it will arrive tomorrow..

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
i was one of the ones who reported it as being in UK earlier but since then status as changed and its still on the continent, so i'm guessing all them who reported being in UK like me if they checked now they will see same status change as me

I've just read some shocking discovery...

"If your N900 is bricked and battery is dead, you cant reflash OR CHARGE BATTERY: You must get another charged battery or external charger" - http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...1&postcount=16

That's horrendous!!

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
They sent him to Cologne!! I thought he'd arrived safe. :(

Looks like he's travelling with yours, Fargus, since he arrived there within a few minutes of yours. Back in the air again now.

Mind, I'm in one of those places which takes an extra day - and I'm not seeing a delivery time. Amazon can get a packet to me in less than 24 hours so I don;t see why UPS need extra time to get down the A30,

(scuse typing - on netbook inthe dark!)

It's not too bad. If you brick it, you're messing with critical stuff, and it's always unwise to do that if you're about to run out of battery charge :-)

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
Picked up a second departure scan - did they send him back thru customs for that Dutch 'coffee'? What's he bringing me from Germany? Eau de Cologne? Bockwurst?

More importantly, he's back to thinking he'll be here tomorrow. :)

I gotta go back to sleep - save enough battery in the netty to check again at 5 am (and enough battery in me to get through a day's work tomorrow). He's in the air out of Cologne. Here's hoping he's flying to somewhere like Bristol! (betcha UPS don't fly to Newquay.... )

Hey guys i need to ask quick question, do you reckon we will be able to use our N900 with another sim, basically i am asking if it is going to come unlocked or we will only be able to use with our Vodafone sim cards.
