N900 device program / developer, promoter discount?
 
Will there be a device program for N900?

Thank you!

I thought all of us had received their free promo-devices meanwhile? slha89, are you sure you gave the correct address in your profile?

Yeah, I'm not sure what he's on about. I've had my N900 and a debug board for a while now.

Wow, guys. So helpful.

No announcements about device programs for the N900 have been made yet.

Oh come on. Next thing you do is complain we're getting off topic and this thread should be in "community"... ;)

(emphasis added)

So the answer is yes. 99.9% yes.

I don't think the N900 will be the first Maemo device without a developer device program. How long before the official launch was the N810 developer device program announced?

This question was asked by Detlef on the Maemo-developers list. Quim Gil replied, explaining:

If you are a developer the best thing you can do is push your software
through the maemo.org Extras process. If you are not a developer just
keep whatever you were doing.

In the past, under previous Maemo device programs, it has been a significant discount that has been extended to key developers and contributors, not straight up, free devices. Nokia has not yet announced the scope or terms of the N900 device program though.

Sorry, I've read this in the mailing lists, but I'm away next 2 weeks and don't want to miss the opportunity to promote N900.
