92.000 units is very little. Hope it isn't true. It is very difficult to develop commercial applications that specifically target the N9 with that amount of units. So most commercial applications will probably be Symbian optimized, compiled for N9. It also makes it very difficult for Nokia to really push the N9 as a development platform to small third-party developers. It is very costly for Nokia (since the sale of only 92.000 units need to cover the cost), and it is very doubtful if the third party developers will see a good return on investment. I think Nokia realizes that and only wants a select few big third party developers making well known "killer apps", like Angry birds, and Skype. And isn't really interested in small third-party developers. I have developed a port of an iOS game for maemo, and would like to make a N9 port. I applied for the N9 dev kit program, but didn't even get a reply (but I'm not a launchpad member, so maybe that is why, don't know ). Then I applied for the Developer Launchpad program in the hope that would provide a way of getting a dev kit. It has been weeks now, and my membership application still hasn't been reviewed yet. I don't know what to think about all this. And since I don't live in any of the scheduled release countries, I'm very curious how difficult it will be to get an N9 here in the Netherlands. I think it is a shame, because it would mean that a port will either be late, or not be released at all.
