Yes, but in a time of two years. The N9 has been on sale for about a month now.

Is it limited in supply? Given you're in a supported country, you can just walk into a phone store, and get a subsidized N9 with contract. That was hardly possible with the N900, which was mostly only available in online stores.
In unsupported countries, the N9 can be bought in online stores. So, actually the supply situation is IMHO better than it was with the N900.

The N900 started at 650 € as well. Prices are already falling as with most smartphones after a few weeks on sale.
