I think you guys are missing the point here. LOL

It's very cool that he wanted to check out the Lumia 900. I hope he likes it. It's a VERY nice phone.

I'm glad I got my Lumia 900 already. Sounds like they might be harder to come by this weekend.

Yeah. And after the bug, the affected phones have been taken out of stores to correct them. They will be sent back in a few days.
And this will create even more shortage.

I thought it was a software thing, meaning that once they were updated in store, it would then be resolved...? I didn't think they were actually sending stock back to Nokia...

This guy seems to be always in the news with a new phone or tablet. Albeit Android, Blackberry, Apple, Windows Phone... etc...

His a nerd with money and I expect him to be getting a new device regularly. Though it doesn't need to be reported by news outlets though.

Actually, the blackberry one is 3 years old, so maybe that doesn't count.

Was meant to add that this has already been reported in several news outlets already - that was my point.

windows 7 fanboys love it and think it's sweet that the one of the founders of apple (who is a giant tech nerd, not an apple nerd) is buying something not apple (especially when he has nothing to do with the company any more)

Wow. Next you'll be telling me Steven Fry is getting one.

Apparently Nokia and AT&T are pulling the Lumia 900
of stock shelves and returning it to Nokia to be flashed
with the new, LTE-bug free firmware.

This process will apparently take 3-5 days, meaning the
phones will only get in stock early next week.

The phone is still available online, where of course either
shipment can be delayed until fixed handsets are available,
or they can make sure only handsets free of the problem
are being sent out.

In the same way that all the Apple fanboys swoon when they hear that he's got his hands on the latest iPhone

You're doing it in the wrong order, you should've helped start a big tech company first and then bought a competitors product.
