I received my Nov 20th order two das ago (Dec 8th). I had overnight shipping selected from the very beginning.
My credit card wasn’t actually charged for the phone until Dec. 10th (after the phone was delivered… strange). I didn’t even have a pending authorization until today. It seems like Amazon almost forgot to charge me and then remembered as an after thought.
No issues with the phone, everything is great with it. Still learning my way around it.
I went to the mall today and saw a invisible shield kiosk. I asked if they had kits for the N900 and the lady at the Kiosk told me she was down to her last one. She informed me they had been going fast. I got the full body shield (have to protect that screen) and it looks great on the phone. It does feel different to touch the screen. Takes allot of the smoothness away because there is much more drag now. However, I don’t mind if the screen is protected from scratches, and it is not too big of a deal.
It was very difficult for me to wait for my order. Believe me if Nokia would have taken my credit card or I found it somewhere else I would have canceled. Keep strong!
Now if they come out with an update to support Exchange 2003 on ActiveSync I will be happy (not that I am not right now) :-)
I ordered on Nov. 20th, and received the handset yesterday (Dec. 9th) just as Amazon had projected for 2-3 day shipping.
No reboot problems, after reading all the bug reports on the forum I was nervous to receive it, but i have to say this handset is DOPE!
- Screen much more responsive than I had been anticipating -- required just a shade more pressure than capacitive to achieve the same interactivity -- no problem here.
- I find the keyboard much easier/faster to type on than I had anticipated. Significantly better (for me) than the E71 or N810.
- It's smaller than I had expected, in terms of overall impression / feel. Dense, but compact. Doesn't feel 2x bigger in my pocket compared to my E71, although it is twice the thickness.
- Screen is gorgeous.
- Getting 1.0 - 1.1 Mbps download speeds in San Francisco from TMobile 3G from epc.tmobile.com on the old $19.99 unlimited internet plan. Some people seem to be reporting up to 4mbps, at least in the Financial District. (I'm in SoMA).
