Well the reason is also the delay.. they need to concentrate on fixing what already is known. They 300 devices help beta testing what's in Extras Testing more than the N900 software itself (Nokia has enough internal testers and tools for that).

They also gave some devices earlier than the Summit to have some real life testing and that was useful.

The bug report was even funnier on the maemo-developers where I used as subject:

"There is a bug for that"
