My geographical skills tell me that Korea is further away than Finland (I am from the UK), so therefore the transport costs would make the N900 more expensive. :)

But the only problem is that this theory would only be valid for European, African and possibly American market. :(

It didn't make any difference to me as both my N8 and N900 are on contract...
Read the OP's thread again :p
He is from Philippines...
Korea is closer to the Philippines compared to Finland.
Korea = Asia | Philippines = Asia
Korea = SouthEast Asia | Philippines = SouthEast Asia

So I don't se how transportation cost makes the n900 more expensive than the n8 lol! :D

Shipping fees, insurance, custom...
time and risk...

They all add up to something.

Erm sort of yes but sort of no also... :p South Korea was part of the ASEAN countries so I guess some part of korea is in southeast. Well all hail breaks loose if nokia would put up a factory on north korea. :rolleyes:

no.
no part of korea was ever a member :)
besides, the ASEAN is just an organization, they can make their own rules who may join and who may not (they are trying to convince japan and south korea to join).

but geographically, korea is not part of south east asia.
