jamesyb0i: just a quick video unboxing, shows how big the shipito box is! 





just for reference what was the measurements of the box and approx weight, so if I can get a friend to send me another one, I can calculate shipping.




Now this button does what? whoops!

Google sent it to me in a fairly large box. That is really unnecessary. I think you can just bubble wrap the box containing the phone and send that out. It's about 26x12x8 (guessing since I threw the box away when I brough the phone back with me)

USD $53.00 for FedEx shipping (inc insurance), my package size is (according to shipito) 11" x 8" x 7" and weighs 1.9 lb

And it's on the way from shipito as well, I have my new Fedex tracking number just arrived in the email.

Yeah, my N900 came from Amazon in a massive box with inflatable bags to fill the rest of the space... Maybe they do it to standardize shipping packaging and make their life easier?

Yeah, they seem to be hung up on the chargers - mine got pulled a few days ago and it took me two days to purchase new micro-USB chargers and convince TM that I actually had them.  They wouldn't accept a US-NZ converter (even though it is an international 100-240 switching supply), they stipulated that I prove the charger is NZ certified or they would not let me list it again (tried and they pulled it within minutes...).

I notice people using the "Hotspot Shield"  I use Tor to represent my IP as US I use Linux as desktop as well.
I tried the "Hotspot Shield" in my Virtual Box windows XP and my Eset Virus checker told me there is a trojan in that
application?   Anyone else consider this important?

Cheers

Yes that was me XD.... they removed my auction... someone bought my htc magic today tho :) $400 less than what I payed 4 months ago Surprised So once the payments come through I might get 2 more n1's (one for a friend) and combine the shipping since more than one can easily fit inside the shipito boxes (about 2 face up, 4 on their sides, and again ontop)
