Which of course makes me appreciate the Maemo Devices loaner program so much more :-)
I suspect that the NDA part (and maybe also the warranty part, hopefully) is standard boilerplate text for the more general Developers Programs for other platforms. I vaguely remember Quim stating that they used Forum Nokia as a convenient way to sell the devices to the developers (most of the e-store framework being already there)...
