Because Nokia is loaning them out, and apps developed on N950 will run on N9.

Yeah, they are putting time on the N950 to do Nokia a big favor so that the N9 won't be without apps when it launches.

Or, alternatively, they aren't putting time on the N950 after hearing what Nokia has to say about MeeGo's future... But then someone else applies for and gets the N950 instead. Gotta be 250 people in the world who either believes in MeeGo, or would say they do, to test the N950 for a while.

Yes, but why? If you want to develop on the N9, why not use the N9?

N950 is available NOW, and since it was discontinued for launch, Nokia has no problem providing them to developers as loans.

Also, think of this as developing for MeeGo, not just N9.

The review and approval process for N950 dev devices is TOUGH.

OK, makes sense. I was not aware it was available now.

Another thing, the "next million", is this it: http://www.developer.nokia.com/Devel...s_40_web_apps/

Web apps for the S40?

funny how Nokia still marketing the N9 after Elop statement about Meego, they are targeting N900 users

try to visit ovi store on the N900 it will redirect you to N9 official page.

Interesting; wonder if that's an on-purpose thing? Well spotted.

<sarcasm>
So the N900 Ovi store is now marginally more useful/interesting than it was when the link for the N900 Ovi store took you to the N900 Ovi store...
</sarcasm>
