Let's remember Nokia work until 17:00 hrs, I have no idea what time the cut of point is for them getting the orders out to the shipping company (UPS?)

I would hazard a guess that we will receive shipping emails very late this afternoon - if they do indeed ship.

Spoke to Nokia a couple of times today. Keep getting hit with that unacceptable word "SHOULD", trying to get something more concrete, and then for my next trick I think I'll walk on water ......

yeah, it makes you wonder how hard it is. do you have devices? yes/no, if yes then how many? do you have a list of pre-orders, draw a line that many units down. tell all the people above the line their orders WILL be shipped. all this 'tentative' gives no re-assurance at all.

Funnily enough they do usually - this, however has been a massive cockup.

Assuming I get my handset on the 4th from MPD, does my T-mobile contract with them commence on that day, or does it start when I activate it?
My O2 iPhone contract expires mid January so was wondering if I could only activate my T-Mobile contract then....

If my T-Mobile contract starts 4 Dec, I'm assuming there are no issues with porting my O2 number across in Jan?

Thanks

It's a conspiracy! The Symbian staff at Nokia sabotaged the N900 deliveries!

T-Mobile allow you to port in your number at any time during a contract so you wont have any problems there. Vodafone and Orange are usually a bit of a pain in that department.

I think it starts from when you receive / activate it - good question though!

Shouldn't be a problem with porting the number in January, did a similar thing last year - went through fine.

- i'm hoping for the 4th as a delivery date too

- couldn't bare waiting till the 7th! (Sure i will survive tho!)
