At the moment there is no evidence that Elop is going to allow the N9 to be sold in greater numbers than the N900? It seems the last thing he wants is for the phone to be a run away success selling in large numbers.
Well, perhaps it will be more available than we originally thought:

iPhone was also limited regionally at first

In any case N9 built like a brick to minimize user ability to screw up the hardware and production cost (hence no flip keyboard is my guess).
