Poor Frantisek - I hope you get your device soon! I feel with you, have
been very curious about it myself.

I just want to confirm that two friends and me allready got our devices
here in germany. Thanks Nokia! We are five students from Karlsruhe
germany who all applied to the developer program. Currently we are
getting a little bit organized and set up a blog at
http://770.hexbox.de/blog. At the moment it is in german only.

For those interested in the details about shipping of the 770 her comes
a short history:

Tue 10.18.: Got mail from Nokia with promotion code (it has been delayed
for one day cause it mentioned monday morning for the release of some of
the promotion codes). Ordered device that afternoon (credit card was
needed - which was a little inconvenient). Got confirmation immediately
and one telling, the device was sent out, in the evening.

was the way of the parcel. (notice that it came from the netherlands!)

Thu 10.20.: received device - started playing and reading from others -
received mail from Nokia pointing me to maemo web site and community

Bye, Jonek.
