Now when i went to the New York Nokia flagship store they also told me a date of November. Do your think this date is for in-store buying and pre-orders will come sooner?

Hmmm... it sounds like news of a delay into November is coming in from multiple sources now.

Well, if true, I won't mind it if it means that they are addressing an issue with build quality.

With todays production techniques stopping a run to correct a design deficiency discovered this late in the game would worry me more.

Marketing logistics might be more likely if there is a delay. It wouldn't suprise me in todays economy if they are still dancing with T-Mo over subsidizing the thing...

So, what happens to all the phones that are shipping on the 27th per the nokia blog article?

Methinks *somebody* is really, really off on their facts.

Yup, at this point the only "fact" is when you actually see one for sale in the stores.

BTW, do you have a link for that blog article.

Nokia Germany is still announcing ca. October 12th for shipment dates.

Could it be that there was a delay in localization for certain countries? That would explain the fluctuating release dates.

It could also be diffenrences between various sale channels.

For example: Nokia's own on-line shops ship in announced timeframe, other retail stores after that and subsudized phones from networks arriving last.

Well my spare battery and 16GB sd card have arrived from Nokia....
Just waiting for the damn phone now ;-)

Ah the waiting is killing me, and more the fact that on the UK shop it doesn't specify any expected ship date...
