And, the other group of people may be getting an email that their submission wasn't selected among the happy 500.

I just got my email saying I'm not in. Oh well. It was worth a shot. At least I don't have to worry that a spam filter ate the message I was accepted.

I'm not in either. Actually, I was worrying about what to do if I suddenly receive it. Probably, I should not submit it in the first place. It would mean that I have to buy N810. I'm quite happy with my N800 and I would rather skip N810 model. The only attracting thing is a builtin GPS. But there are other things I do not like: external design, slider keyboard, micro-SD. Another problem is the infamous online store. I have bad experience with it when trying to buy GPS device. After three days of phone calls, where I was required to call them, answering to "verification" questions, finally they required American Express to verify me as well, I've canceled order and ordered GPS quickly, without any "verifications" and 50$ less in another store.

About the project I was planing to do on N810 (it was application for GPS photo-tagging), I've decided to buy Sony's specialized device instead. Funny, it will cost me less, then N810 with discount.

I gots mine too! Thanks a million Ari and Nokia! I was part of N800 device program too

I was hoping this time round I'd get it; but I wasn't confident since I got it the last time.

Once again thanks guys; you rock! Can't wait to buy my promo N810!

(I am giving a lecture in college soon about Linux to ~200 people; hopefully I get my N810 in time for some serious showing off!!!)

I got the negative one as well.. if there's a new program for the mythical N900 maybe I'll reapply then. Oh well, I won't be able to assist much when people ask N810-specific questions.

Anyway I'll be concentrating more on development for the N800 (that's the plan anyway). And I still hope the next tablet will be full-size, dual SD!

(Actually it would better be described as SD+upgradeable internal storage..)

In my opionon, everyone that bought the N800 should get a discount on the n810 .........

omg ... then i'm hoping for an advice.
Can i get the device only from stores or can it be ordered online with a QWERTY keyboard?
Mine will be picked by a friend in Paris and send it to me (my precious) mileeees away (like n800 was, my dear country lacks many things i see ...)
