On the bottom of the article there is some information I had not read yet. Apparently Nokia made a mistake in their Nokia N900 offering on the Dutch online Nokia shop as can be seen from this screenshot:
Problem is customers asked Nokia for clarification, and received confirmation the offer was correct. A few days later Nokia e-mailed again and stated the information was incorrect, allowing customers to receive a full refund.
Arnoud Engelfriet, an IT lawyer from Netherlands specialized in internet law has blogged on the item and believes customers have big chance getting what was offered in the initial offer because Nokia employees confirmed the offer as correct. His blog post is here (NL) (Google Translate (EN)). At least 4 customers are affected, and a civil lawsuit is being considered where mr. Engelfriet is interested presenting customers pro-bono.
My take: while 3 Bluetooth headsets is clearly a mistake because its unreasonable 3 of such is included. An official reply from Nokia stating offer is correct is what makes this case different from other jurisprudence. I'm personally not affected by this, but from a legal point of view its interesting to follow. I'm also glad end of october 2009 is still target release date.
