Which they never promised. If you're going to hold people to a promise, ensure it's one they actually made.
“At present, the latest version of Ovi Maps only runs on Symbian-based devices, with a limited number of handsets supported. With 10 models supporting the new app at present, Nokia is rolling out support for other models in the coming days and weeks, and you can expect to find the Nokia N900 among the smartphones set to benefit.
This is backed by what the Executive Vice President of Nokia, Anssi Vanjoki, had to say at yesterday’s launch event. Vanjoki pointed out that “in later dates we will also be increasing the number of support for this [sic] and certainly moving forward it will also support Maemo”.

Well the best way to describe the Nokia n900 is handheld Linux Computer with a phone poorly bolted on. Sure the phone part may be attached but it always feels like it wasn't screwed on hard enough and you never use the phone because the phone is too delicate and you might break. That is what the Nokia n900 is.
I just went to the Nokia web store- USA, and there's no N900 anymore.
there is N8 preorder... but no N900 on anywhere.
this is sad. now it will not even sold to anyone else, anymore, no more developers, no more consumers, just "a phone forgotten in the past."
"N900 is now discontinued after 9 months from release."
yup. that's it.
I saw the same few days ago, but when I went to their websire to download QT4.7 I saw very mention of n900 and on the online store it is now available for sale , again ! or may be its by mistake that they have listed it again, or they've changed their mind to keep on supporting sucha powerfull device ?~
