It has been out for a while now but a google search seems to provide no results. I would also like to know how good the N900 is doing worldwide.

Any news on when Nokia plans to release some kind of sales figures?

Usually available in Nokia's quarterly result. See http://investors.nokia.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=107224&p=irol-newquarterlyearnings

The N900 might not make it in due to very late official release date, it'll probably show up in next quarterly report due in March

we should just have a meeting one day, where we can schedule all the n900 owners to log on to the forum at once. that way i can see how many people there are "viewing".

thats how you beat the system =P

In Torino, Italy, it seems they are selling it very very well. I showed mine to some friends who also wanted to buy it. In Nokia Shops they say they have a very long queue. So maybe Nokia is giving them very few N900 or they are selling it very well.

I don't think Nokia ever meant to sell that many N900. More of a proof of concept phone.

You would think if they were selling a lot of N900's they would be shouting it from the rooftops as a way of "selling" the platform to developers. Commercial developers of significant applications don't seem to be targeting the platform, as the low hanging $$$ are in the user bases of the Iphone, Android Phones and even Palm Pre.

The lack of a public commitment from Nokia to support future Maemo/Meego releases on the N900 is serving as a further disincentive to commercial developers and the lack of a clearly articulated "vision statement" for Maemo/Meego devices is further hurting adoption. The gadget press seemed utterly dumbfounded and downbeat about Meego coming out of Mobile World Congress. The only more negative press I heard regarding an initiative/platform was regarding Bada.

I lost the link with the storm of last few days, but I read in a blog post from a Nokia employee some interesting facts regarding the N900:

- He mentionned about 1 million N900 sold worldwide. And he even mentionned what we already know: "without marketing". I am not sure if we can say : wow that is a lot but still I consider this is ok.

- He (and I consider that means Nokia) was actually impressed about the number of downloads for N900 applications. Compare to Symbian, there were far more downloads per user. And that was one of the problem indeed for Symbian (and so not attracting developpers).

- He said also that he was quite happy about Symbian being dropped. He argued that was too costly (money and resources) to adapt it to the new world. That was explaining the drop of Symbian ^4 and so the platform (Symbian ^3 is not enough).

As I lost the link, you will have to believe me ;) or someone can find it back (the number of N900 sold was mentionned in a comment from him after some other guys comment + I remember his firstname: Daniel :) )
