And for the record, I am for developer discounts. I know it would help immensely to get the device in as many peoples hands as possible as quickly as possible. In fact it would probably help to justify a N800 refresh as well if there is a surge in popularity ala iphone/itouch.

I just don't think it would be the end of the community, or the failure of the N900 because Nokia didn't have a developer discount program.
