I wasn't eligible for the DDP. I would have taken up the offer, even with the warranty issue. I just want to develop my apps for the N900. Unfortunately, I can't quite afford the full price so it looks like I won't be getting one. (Are there any restrictions on those with DDP eligibility reselling those devices?)

Ignoring all the other "issues" that have been raised since this thread was created, if Nokia had mentioned right from the start in bold lettering that the warranty was limited, I don't think we'd be having this discussion.
