Khertan, you seem to be in France and thus i have a question for you...
Is it true that now all the 1-13 wi-fi channel are activated in France or are you still stuck with 10-13 ?

Channels 1-13 are usable in France. There is a limit to the transmit power on some channels when outdoors, that's all. The decision was taken in 2003, you'll find the official text here: http://www.arcep.fr/uploads/tx_gsavis/03-908.pdf
Arcep is the official regulatory body and the above document is directly from their web site. If you want it more official than that, you'll have to order a copy of the "Journal Officiel" yourself.
Did this arrive please? I'm considering ordering from Misco but would like to know if they really have stock or not.
Misco do have stock -- my order was despatched on Thursday, and the courier tried to deliver it on Friday, but couldn't find my house, so they will redeliver on Monday.
Just for the record. I asked Nokia/Maemo team and they told me the day we will finally be able to use our codes is expected to be the 15 of december. And that we will receive further info by email on how to use them.
Sadly, nokia.co.uk doesn't show the N810 when you click in the link, but the price appears correct. Expansys are still saying £374.95 with a 4 day wait. Misco say they have stock at £299.
Methinks I'll keep using the N800 until the OS update arrives, and I get a chance to see the mapping application for myself.
