Oh well in that case. You have a very good pay. 21.29$ an hour at a grocery store is very good. So I guess things are more expensive there.

does it really matter what anyone paid for a n900 as long as they use it and get the enjoyment out of it as it's a great mobile even if the usb port does fall out lol can still repair it easy as hell.

Got mine for $470USD after cash back $50USD in October :P Preorder!
My USB still hard and tight as ever. Gone abit loose than the first time but it's still good.

Damn $21/hr in grocery store? that's a wow! I'm an IT person with a Computer Science degree only just got to $23/hr after 3years though.

But then of course, everything is too expensive in Norway. I's beyond all comprehension how you Norwegians can stand the prices.

Even so, the prices have dropped quite a bit. I bought mine in November last year for 6000 SEK in Nokia store. But I have no idea how much that was in USD at the time.
EDIT: Pixmania in Sweden has it for $600, including postage and packing.

Yes, you paid too much. But I doubt that really means anything if you use the device.
