I have it too, ordered immediately :-) 250 EUR, shipping and taxes were reported as 0 and my card was charged twice - 250EUR and 1EUR. I wonder where it is shipping from (card transaction says NOKIA ITALIA SPA) and whether VAT will be charged later or is included.

If anything happens to n900, there is a chance to buy another n900 with DDP? (returning the first n900?)

THE DEVICES THAT ARE SOLD THROUGH THE DDP DO NOT HAVE WARRANTY. If the device that you receive is defect, you can return it within one (1) week from the purchase with a written note explaining what the defect is.
It s seems ... :(

The lack of warranty seems weird to me ... I mean, if the unit is defective, you would expect Nokia to fix or replace it, regardless of a discount.

This is more like we're getting a good price because we're buying on the gray market than because we're valued.

Because you're getting it at a discounted price and through DDP meaning you're only using the device for development.

I doubt Nokia will fix or replace the device. If they do, everyone would be buying from DDP and not at retail price.

well, not everybody gets accesso to the DDP discounted devices...so most people will get it at retail price. And I agree that this is a bit odd to not offer standard warranty

Simple explanation, because it's heavily discounted..offering full standard warranty means people ordering through DDP will resell the device.

I think you're rather missing the point (and scope) of this program. It applies to a small number of people, who have already demonstrated substantial ongoing interest in the Maemo platform -- not a group likely to resell the one unit they can buy through the program.
