After e-mailing for an update on the price, I got this in response: Hello from Amazon.com. Nokia N900 is not covered by our Pre-Order Price Guarantee because only books, music, videos, DVDs, software, and video games are currently eligible for this program. I'm sorry for any disappointment this may cause. I've included some additional information about our pricing policies below. Thanks for shopping at Amazon.com. ***** WHAT ITEMS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR PRE-ORDER PRICE PROTECTION? Our Pre-Order Price Guarantee applies only to not-yet-released books, CDs, videos, DVDs, software, and video games sold by Amazon.com. It does not apply to other product lines, to items that have already been released, or to items offered by other sellers on our site. Also, we don't price-match with other sellers who offer items either on our website or elsewhere. ***** WHERE CAN I FIND MORE INFORMATION ABOUT AMAZON'S PRICING POLICIES?
