All it needs is one person to mishear or typo from the chain of the person making the decision all the way down to UK retail, and you've got the 9th instead of the 19th.
And none of the Nokia people here can spot that and tell us it's a simple error because....?

Additionally likely, because they simply don't know. People on the technical end of things aren't likely to have the first clue when something is going to be launched - that's ultimately down to marketing and sales.

Also perhaps telegraphing then- that there are still issues, so they do not know either.

Still, I am sure some all knowing sales rep will have the date for sure this time My guess is we are called N900 Nuts when reps talk about stuff during breaks and lunch
