Has any ordinary person actually seen one of these things? Actually received it? NokiaUSA claimed "InStock" so I ordered it and a bunch of other stuff, about $1000 worth, on 12 December. Despite multiple correspondence ("In Process" - what does THAT mean) and no response and no receipt I finally canceled the order on 12/31/09. Shame on them. VAPORWARE. So I will not order it on line, rather wait until it is in a store. Fortunately I'm going to Europe next week, perhaps they actually have the gear. My sense is that it really has not landed in the USA.

Cheers, Andy

Best buy was selling good……It came down to $520 which included $50 rebate stuff……missed the offer and its sold out temporarily….

Amazon lowered it to $530 but now its back to $588. Do we see any price drop happening in few weeks since thrz no more offer with it?

@tirta You can also do it on Ovi Maps from your N900.

Hmm, curious in the rebate form. you must activate the OVI Store.

In Ovi Store, you need to choose the mobile phone. but there is no nokia N900 in the option.

How can you submit the rebate form then ????

Update: Amazon edited its page. It now says that WITH the $50 mail in rebate, the total comes to $559. Not $509. I don’t think Amazon knows what they are doing.

Part of your story is incorrect. According to Amazon, the rebate will not apply to pre-orders done before November 16 (this per Nokia's rebate terms).

Amazon considers a pre-order a "purchase" when it comes to the date that will be shown on your invoice, which you need to submit with the Nokia rebate form.

So if you pre-ordered November 15th, for example, you can't use the rebate. Doesn't seem fair does it? I am on my third email to Amazon trying to show them what's wrong with this. They're saying "just cancel and re-order" which you can do, but that puts you at the back of the line for shipping,and that's an additional and unknown delay that I don't want to add to the current delay already going on. They are going to have a lot of people upset with this when they eventually figure it out. If you're one of them - write!
