The more I buy the better discount I get...obviously we are not talking about 100's... maybe 20ish for starters ?? is it worth it...we shall see
I do believe that you've become our possible Plan B.

I'll update the list shortly - there's been a few more people.

im not sure i want to spend 1000 on it yet....i did that for a couple of my 9 e90's. its a damned amount for sure.


why so darn expensive for our devices. i can get triumphs for 200 without activation.
Would you be willing to reveal the name of that company?

heh at this rate the n9 will be worth it by just being a rare collectors item here in the US lol.

I hope something works out though.

I wonder how many people with the Nokia N950 would get behind something like this. Would they not really care since they're already covered?

Just wondering...

Not sure I understand the question. Do you want to know if n950 users will also want an n9?

At least one does: me.

Yep. That was the inquiry. Thanks for the answer.

Would be perfect, but I'm willing to bet that's set aside for devices sold in this region. That currently excludes the Nokia N9.
Isn't that an office? Offices aren't necessarily used for support. They might be there for purely managerial, engineering and other purposes and have NOTHING to do with Maemo/MeeGo or even support at all. Having an office in a country doesn't necessarily mean you're going to do anything within that country either.

Take, for instance, the fact that they have this shiny new office.. but Nokia has NO presence to customers in the US (no stores, not even kiosks... nothing). Why would you assume they will have anything to do with customers from that office?

Nokia could be creating artificial shortages to enhance demand. Maybe they're learning from Nintendo...

I have an N950, and still want an N9 so bad I can taste it.

Just saw the first lot of adds for the N9 in Melbourne, Australia. I may be wrong, but it was during Prime Time, and quite long. I'm not sure that much effort (and most likely expense) would be put in if there were limited units (i.e. < 100,000), but stranger things have happened with Nokia lately.

@Texrat, agree with you regarding your comments about generating demand. It's in Nokia's interest to not say anything, the fear of missing out on the next shiny new gadget is a powerful marketing tool.
