Probably developpers knowing how to close the store aren't anymore at Nokia ...

You know the famous joke : How many Microsoft engineers does it take to change a light bulb? It burned out? You must be using a non-standard socket.

I'm not complaining, but imagine my surprise when I got an app update notification last week. :D

It could simply be that those apps were submitted before the closure... See profilematic it too was submitted before the closure but the update arrived only a few days ago...

Surprise, surprise. When I checked the store in the first days of January I wasn't able to connect. Now, it looks up and running. Nice find, lorenzo!

From what I understood, they weren't going to accept application updates, but everything else was going remain running.

This of course brings up the question of, what happens if/when it closes all together, I'm sure quite a few people bought applications from it, and are we just screwed if we did so, or are all of them going to be mirrored somewhere and/or possibly 'freed'?

Right now we have Warehouse http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=91574 I suggest to backup paid apps by ex. FTP or N9QTweak the path for apps is:
Code:

/var/cache/apt/
The app have to be copied when Nokia Store installing it, and change extension to .deb

I'm aware of that, unfortunately you'd have to remove and then re-install all of your commercial packages to get the .deb files. It'd be nice if the community could open another 'store'.

Maybe someone could build a store with Bodega?

You better be careful with this idea. A few weeks ago I was no able to reinstall Nokia Lens & Nokia Panorama after a reflash.
Both packages are now in Openrepos so I would recommend this site.
