I think by now it is clear that Nokia believes that there is sufficient market space for such devices as the N900.

Remember, it ain't just balding, greybeard *nix hacker geeks like me that are into these devices (that would be an unprofitable market)...there is a whole new breed of tech savvy late-teens/twentysomethings that are cool with linux distros like Ubuntu. They understand what this device and platform means, and they have mommy & daddy's wallet to raid at Christmas
