12 minutes after six o'clock. Nokia Shop is closed now. They promised me to call me back today, but nothing happens. Old and new code still doesn't work. I used a fresh browser profile w/o any extensions.
Aleksandyr, while this is true, you can get to the n810 page which the link from the page you mentioned has previously gone to, and which has a discount code field. However when you enter the code it still says "your gift card has no balance".
In addition no where on the e-mail was the US store mentioned, nor that instructions would be forthcoming as was stated for Canada.
Well CES, and MacWorld are coming up bet there will be some new devices forthcoming to the market, I wonder if they will alienate the US too.
Actually, I've already got the N810 and don't quality for a discount (my first internet tablet).
But it's kind of annoying knowing that most of the best developer guys are probably sitting on their hands thinking "I ain't doin nothin till I get my discount"...
Looking forward to you guys earning those discount codes with loads on new stuff
I CALLED the US shop to get past the backorder business.. you CAN place orders this way. Two pieces of bad news:
1) The codes still do not work
2) The ETA for the N810 is FEB 18, 2008!
Yes, you read it right, Feb 18! A month and a half! Maybe they will come early but this whole business has blown up in Maemos/Nokias collective faces. I'm not above buying the device at retail (I bought my 770 and 800) but they are generating a lot of bad will and keeping the device out of the hands of the very people they need to build the software ecosystem.

WOW
so the people in the US with discount codes have 10 days to use them before they expire at the end of Feb!
lets hope they don't sell out too quickly or that the date is not changed further into the future!
Well in theory we will be able to order them once the codes get sorted out. Even if the web site says back-ordered, you can call the store and place the order. I hope and pray that happens before Feb 19! ;^)
