i beg to differ with your market analysis here...

collectors (real ones, who put the device in a locked plexiglass closet with controlled atmosphere, indirect light & all that ( ¦-)))))) will pay... 2000€?
but you won't find those here i think
will have to go to ebay to reach that sort of clientèle

for the Community here, a N950... is a N9 with a keyboard.
sure, it has the halo of a Dev device you couldn't buy officially, but heck, who is developing on a N9{0,5}0?
a script or testing of course is nice, with the possibility to cat a log file or so on the spot, real-time
otherwise? just a N9 with a hardware keyboard.
don't take me wrong, i'm very keen on the hw kbd thingy, but... Jolla's other half
right now, right here, i think most ppl either already have invested a 100€ in that or are saving adamantly for it

400€? maybe...
700€? ebay...

PS: that is, if it has 1GB of RAM; otherwise, forget it
(anyone who ever run free or installed Free Cache on a N9 knows that with 512MB... you may as well stick w/ a N900
even accounting for NOKIA's hijacking of ~250MB of RAM for swap
wonder how that works on a 512MB dev
