Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Ok, here's a little game to pass the time - since the N900 can take a 16G microSD card, let's see who can find the cheapest source. Rules are:

1. Online retailers only, so if you find some in your local 99p shop,. that doesn't count

2. You have to include the cost of next business day delivery

3. UK based suppliers only

4. Memory cards must be new, i.e. no tat from fleabay

Ready, steady, GO.....

Morning, still nothing but tumbleweed in here then?

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Should also add what class the card is as that has a bearing on price

Im too busy sulking at all the UPS tracking mails flying around

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

So, what is the status of the stock that should be coming to MPD? Is this going to be coming from the Netherlands like the stock for those who pre-ordered from Nokia? Any idea when it will be arriving at their offices?

Basically, anyone know when we should start bugging the hell out of MPD again?

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Im suspecting Fri

Based on the conversation I had with the MPD guy at the NFS in London, MPD will get their stock the same time it hits the Nokia retail shops.
The moment it get there, Im on the phone to MPD and maybe cancelling my order and buying in store..

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

I've been posting in the other UK thread but have been equally dismayed by UPS tracking notification, with peoples' N900s being no more than 4 miles from their homes! Think I'll switch to this one seeing as I'm also an MPD customer...

Just to add what MPD have told me (think I posted a webchat in the other thread), T-Mobile contracts will be honoured but you can't change anything unless you want to change to a Voda contract. They're essentially selling us a SIM-free phone with a contract from a company that they take commission on, so don't see why they wouldn't honour it.

When I asked them about delivery yesterday, they still told me the 3rd, as with the emails they sent out, but said it was possible they would come earlier...

I'd assume that the MPD batch are also on their way to the UK, but instead of being sent straight to us, they're going to be sent to the stores and then re-packaged and shipped out. Bearing in mind that no contracts have been activated for us yet, and that they have over 500 preorders, I can see how it might take them a while to get all these phones out...

Grr...

Here is a chat log message when I contacted them today at 9:20amGMT

Hope this releases some stress, but also made me angry for another week :P
