This order sucks as far as I am concerned. First in last out??? How many 'final' versions do you need in order to make a really final one? Anyway the 'final' version for the 302 was to be ready in june 2010. So I do not really care for this planning. And would advice potential buyers of new models to wait until the software works as it should.

I share your frustration. I've ordered two 902's (black) way back in October: deadline after deadline went by, and it's a different excuse every time. And of course, the excuse pops up just a short time before the deadline elapses.

Maybe I should have ordered them in white.

I wonder what excuse we'll hear when November 20th will swoosh by. A local dealer here says I shouldn't expect them before December. I can hear it now "due to the massive orders, we're out of stock!". I hope he was talking about December 2010.

The fastest thing I noticed from PocketGoods is the debiting of my creditcard.

Welcome vvdb!

Posting on the forums helps with the stress. The x03 models are going to be the last to arrive so there are more chances of added delays. So you can at least feel better because you are not going to be the last to receive your device.

Hi,

Because of preparing the new delivery I was a little bit busy last time and have not visited the english part of forum for a couple of days. Sorry!

So.. today we have dispatched PB902 (white) PB602 and PB IQ on all our precustomers. That was quite stressy... We had to flash all preordered reader. But it's done! Your order is the next

Actually you haven't posted here for a couple of weeks. You missed all the fun with people wondering what happened with the new models since you decided to show the new shipping dates on your website a week after the first new models were supposed to arrive.

So now that you are visiting the english forums again, can you tell us something about the x03 models? Do you know which countries will get 3G?

That's a question only pocketbook itself can answer, because they only can speak with mobil-phone-providers (when you want it for free).

All I know, it is still the fourth week of november we hope to get the xx3 PBs and deliver them to our customers. About free 3G SIM Card for other European countries we have exactly same information like all of you - negotiations are in process but without any promises now.

Here is my short unboxing video of new Pocketbook 902, 602 and IQ:

Getting a SIM card seems to be another delay, since you have to open the devices and insert it. In which order will the devices be sent to other countries?

The 902 Pro was in a sleeve of some kind. Is this standard? Is it neoprene or what is it? Is it usefull on a day to day basis?

The neoprene is actually fortified before the screen, thus giving additional protection during transport.

Nice. It looks good also!

I think this is the little thing, that made me go from thinking 'I want a DX' to 'I want a 902'

Read post #125. For those who have preordered the white 902, the device is on its way. The black ones should follow next week.
