1000 Euro is really something many of us won't afford, especially in poorer countries (for example: in Poland it's 2.5 times as much as the minimal monthly pay and a even more than the average pay. And I know some people earn about 200 Euro per month)
Sorry for late reply. No there are no such plans yet, we wouldn't know how to do that. Dropping literally all advanced features would still not create any sort of "low budget" device. This is a low volume production almost custom made, there's little we could do to compete to manufacturers that sell half a million or more of one design.
I think Nikolaus is planning to produce yet another batch of GTA04, those are considerably cheaper than Neo900 but also not any sort of N900 successor, despite inheriting some achievements I came up with for Neo900, like the 1GB of RAM which GTA04 will also use now.
