If you click EUROS. it's more expensive than DIRECT from Nokia. strange?

Nokia sells it for 599, and they sell it for 610. LOL.

Is it normal that a company sells a phone for MORE than the OEM, unlocked, DIRECT provider? That's the first time I've actually ever seen that. Most companies find a way to buy lots of them for cheap, and then resell them with a mediocre warranty or none at all for less money. But not for MORE money!

Their specs have MMS listed. Wonder where they copy & pasted that from?

It also says it has Java which I thought it had not and mentions "Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate" which could be considered misleading when next to nothing uses that function at launch.

Not with Nokia. There might be couple of guys buying N900 from Nokia Flagship store Helsinki, but you can be sure that places like verkkokauppa.com might even have long lines when N900 comes looking at preorders there.

I believe Nokias net stores aren't directly Nokias.
