With AT&T, for instance, data will cost half as much on the N900 as it will on the iPhone. Over 24 months, that's $360.

I never caught on to what a "flagship" store is exactly...
do they have any commercials for the N97 yet and if so are they marketing it like a NIT or a smart phone in the US (being in korea feels like I'm under a rock away from the world).

Wikipedia has an explanation.
