So with this new Maemo phone (N97 bastard-brother)
are we looking at the du-rigor mobile-telephony pricing scheme?
Should we plan on paying 799$ for unlocked
or 399$ for a contract + phone?

.....If that is the case, and if someone in the know doesn't 'accidentally' reveal SOMETHING about a larger screen, extended UI Maemo5 model, then count me out of this sick little leak game, cause we've been here on "ITT" too long to be bamboozled and nuanced into a bunch of potential phone-switching townies....
