Not really. AT&T tends to not announce phones that have yet to be announced by the manufacturer yet.

Explanation about Nokias NFC-Phones. On many websites you could read; Nokias NFC-Phones dont have an embedded secure element and dont have SWP. Also on my website. So how will it support secure payments next year? This is confusing!
I decided to ask Nokia. They answered fast and I updated the info on my website today. if you still have questions, just ask.
http://www.nfc-phones.org/ Focus on availability of NFC-Phones, list by country and by carrier. NEW; page Finland added, only a few Phones available yet, but I wanted to please the rapidly growing group of Finnish visitors. Thank you.

^ Right... So... What did they say about the lack of SWP for the N9?
Will we be able to add it retrospectively through the use of a sticker or SIM, & will they support that?

I was thinking $500-$650 range. I figure I would get the 16GB and be happy. No way am I paying $800 for 16GB or $1000 for 64GB. Meego is cool and all but sorry.

Worst part, hardware for N9 is already outdated. I'm definitely not going to buy Nokia WP just because of the BS they are pulling with N9. That just show me how A-hole they are. I'm not going to support such A-Hole.
That price is a joke... I'm not sure if this is "thanks to Nokia"...
I reckon this retailer is just exploiting people that don't have it in their country.
Or are desperate to buy it at any cost, because they're sick of waiting.
Or are just too dumb to do any proper homework etc....

Nor am I. But that hasn't stopped No-where-to-be-seen-kia slapping on some handsomely high sticker prices before, case in point N96 from 2008.


edit: unless it comes with rocket launchers. I need some g**damn rocket launchers.

Phones are way to cheap in us. $700-800 is a fair price according to me. That is the price for most new smartphones in Europe. So it's fair

Fair? Dude, for $749, I can get a Mac Book Air - last gen, unopened, delivered and running OS X 10.7. Or I could get a Drobo S and fill it with drives. Or I could build a couple of Linux servers. Or I could get a Xoom, a Grid 10 tablet and still have some money left over. I could get all kinds of stuff for around $800... but a phone?

**** that.

You hit above $550 USD in the US, you're basically not going to sell much.

And in 2008, Nokia asking $800 for a N96, a lot of the current positions are making sense to me now.

That's way too high for North America. Period.

I've mentioned drop-kicking old ladies already in this thread. So you wanna up the ante?

Ok... I'm drop kicking old ladies for deli meats with soccer cleats on in their temples... it is on like Donkey Kong!
