Why don't you forward your shipping confirmation back to me, and I'll see what I can do about taking care of the problem.

Hi Fake,

I have still not received my order.
I have forwarded the Shipping confirmation email back to you.

Please can you make enquires from your end to see what the problem is

Thanks

There is next to nothing I can do about tracking these orders, so I'll send you another one. Email sent.

Maybe I am just daft

) I have something in mind, I hope to announce really soon. I think everyone is going to be really happy with it.

Unfortunately my laser is not powerful enough to cut metal. The bottle-opener suggestion above was pure genius. I'm talking to some shops with water-jet cutters....

danramos, thank you so much for the high compliments -- I'll respond substantially soon -- have to run to a birthday dinner for my brother!

@fake: My university ordered 6 stands a while ago, at my suggestion (I'm an undergrad doing research using N900s), and they arrived today. I must say, I'm impressed. They work better than I'd hoped, and are well constructed. Well worth the money (although I didn't spend it... :P). Ironically enough, we ordered an extra stand, and then two more phones came in today from Nokia.
Nice work, and fully recommended - if the pictures and video weren't recommendation enough.

I am also looking for a suitable stylus to replace the cheap plastic one that comes with our beloved N900. I so miss the quality of the N800 one...
So far I have bought two different ones on EBay. One is practically all metal and is also telescopic, but has to be unscrewed to be used and it hangs from a lanyard, and that makes it less than practical, thought it is still very nice indeed. The other is the one from the N97.

An all metal or wood stylus with a plastic tip covering would be fantastic. For it to be perfect, however, it needs to fit into the N900 stylus receptacle. If you make one, please let me know. I will buy at least 5.

Oh! Make it Bluetooth also. Because everything can be made better if you add Bluetooth to it.

Jaem, do you mind telling me (PM is fine) what kind of research you're doing with N900's? I hope to do some computational photography with them.

oops, uhh, see you can't go into detail from this post: http://ffejery.wordpress.com/2010/02...nd-fresh-code/ -- no big deal.

I will see what I can do -- I was going to announce something today, but I'm not, due to unforseen flood-related circumstances. Hopefully tomorrow.

I am super-excited about it. I just need to confirm some things with a friend of mine. I am going to be gone the next two weeks, giving talks at Harvard and in Canada as well. My friend Matti will be handling orders during that time -- I want to be sure everyone is cool with everything, both him and you, and that all order fulfillment stuff is cool. That way I won't have to shut down the store when I leave.
