N9 @ Best Buy (USA)
 
I was surfing the web and stumbled upon N9 at Best Buy:

Interesting....

Would be nice if they actually mentioned the capacity. At that price I would hope it's not the 16GB.

In my country a new N9 black 16Gb costs around $570 in online stores (prices went up recently). So (not incl. taxes) it's still cheap at BestBuy ;)

In my country it's impossible to get N9 from any store. There's certain irony in that.

This is really strange, since the N9 was not supposed to be in distribution in the US, nor was there to be warranty support available. I suppose this has changed?

Nah it has been in the US through various minor channels since quite sometime... In fact Nokia Business USA has been listing it as a business solution since a number of months...

In Australia, a big chain (dick smith) just unloaded their remaining N9 stock at $99.
There was a very undignified scramble, and I think the staff got most of them. A pity, since the staff will probably be not appreciate them. I hope some get resold rather than rotting in a drawer.

Yes, I remember the N9 being available via Nokia's enterprise solutions channel. The fact that Nokia appears to be offering official support and distribution in a consumer channel is what seems different this time.

(Of course I realize that the N9 has been available in the US for some time, I live in the US and had to purchase my two n9s via importers)

The irony of this is that I bought a 64gb n9 here in the US for less than that. The device was imported from Switzerland...

Can you let me know where? I'm looking for N9s in Europe or the US (I have friends in the US that can send the phone to me). It's very hard to find the 64GB model in Europe for less than EUR 420 (USD 540 approx.) these days.

Yes, they are reliable. I bought my N9s from them. They also took care of the sticky warranty situation when one of my devices needed servicing

16GB. Also for sale at Target:
http://www.target.com/p/nokia-n9-00-...k/-/A-14243256

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Nokia+-+...20n9&cp=1&lp=1

Wonder if cash starved Nokia is trying to squeeze the last few cents out of the products they killed.

More than likely Ingram Micro stock, not really at Best Buy or Target. They'll (Ingram Micro) drop ship it for whomever.
