It is a pitty, but I still think Nokia has only produced a VERY limited amount of these devices, and even if every TMO member buys one (IF there are enough n9's for this) we will not get much support for it, even community support, as the community around this phone will be so small...

Looking at every angle of risk management Elop has to limit the amount of N9's IF he is all out for WP, it stands to reason.

BUT in doing so he will have cut off one of the lives Nokia are clinging too so if he is wrong then down he goes along with Nokia possibly, unless they move quick and get back to reality.

He is definietly a kamakaze CEO.

I agree with 90% of your previous post but can not agree to the numbers you think Nokia will produce N9's.

I don't believe it also. There is no reason to spend any marketing money for N9 if there is really so few devices produced.

He them shows me the pre order list for this one store and it is this notebook with some 30 to 40 pages covered. This store alone should be able to sell all n9 coming to Brazil even without any advertising. He said at best he will get 300 to 400 units and didn't promise to fullfil pre orders

.... not this again. :D

I might have to go back through the aforementioned thread to make sure I didn't miss anybody.

Are you doing a list? Here or in that thread? Whatever, but, if so, count on me for one more Cyan 64Gb :D

the very fact they are selling only 92000 units at different prices throughout the world.
Where are you getting this from?


Nokia is advertising it online, btw.

http://www.nokia.no/

also Telenor, who has exclusive rights on the N9 in Norway, are marketing it like crazy. Which would make no sense if they had like 1000 devices only coming in.

The preorder price in Dubai for 64GB is : 718$

I know I don't have many posts here, but if some one interested, I can help sending the device.

I'm doing that because I want the success for this device that I was waiting longtime.

I just want to propose my help to this community that I gained from information and knowledge.

by the way, I'm from United Arab Emirates, and the device is still in pre-order for 64GB black. I don't know when it will be available in the stores.
