I think not, the N8 is Symbian while the N9 is Meego

I would say that the N8 and the N9 is meant to overlap, not succeed each other. As it is now, the N9 is more of a competitor to the N8 than the N900.
only problem is that afaik 100% of all available units are leased...
oh ? i havent read the stuff on the dev program yet...
so its not a give away ?
hah - just like Nokia.
Based on the number of N900 sold they should have a rough idea what the demand for N950 is.... could have made a small batch to sell to some of the more desperate here...
Starting this thread I was hopping for a N950 to be even better then the N900 since I have not found a phone that matches the N900 yet.
After just a couple of post I must read that the phone is for developers only and all my dreams a shattered.
Sad moment

PS: What would you think about a open letter to Nokia on my site www.n950.com where people would sign with name, country and a short comment begging Nokia to make a better N900 available to consumers.

I call that a 'DMC-FZ50' moment. Sometimes a product line ends at it's peak, not after it's been surpassed. Selling better devices does not mean better profit.
