Purely speculative, but the most obvious reason for me would be that the update bricks your device - not much of an issue if you start from zero (or it is preinstalled), but would be a kind of downer for like most existing users. There could be many other reasons (regulatory/legal/etc) so, especially considering the experience with the UK firmware, selective availability of firmwares is not exactly unheard of.

Also, they need to hurry up and shuffle that PenPower package over to the non-free catalog or to the Nokia repositories instead of the free catalog.
Which package are we talking about, precisely ?

For the record, the N900 has a little over 300 apps that have been cleared by community or Nokia’s QA, and over 3000 with community apps that are in various stages of development, plus an unknown amount of commercial apps (known to exist from announcements or YT demos). Note that these numbers are not directly comparable to other platforms as we have full blown browsers and not site-specific apps, platform-emulators instead of single games, etc.

"over 3000 with community apps that are in various stages of development"

Only 5 applications have EVER actually come out of community brainstorm in 6 months - I assume this is where you got the 3000 figure from.

You assume wrong. The figure comes from a combination of repositories, most notably extras-devel, which alone sports 3234 unique, community maintained packages.

Well, not all are apps - most are libs, thus invisible to the user.

Even with ungrepping libs it’s well over 2000 just for extras-devel. But as said, it’s difficult to pour package data into app numbers. For example, Easy Debian (with it’s N thousand packages) counts as ONE application. Now compare that with one app on, say, the iPhone that just acts as a custom RSS reader or web front-end for www.foo.com
