I'm not sure that Nokia can afford to f-up with the N900, too, at least not from my perspective (as a user, and a developer).
Didn't know that they did that after acquiring Navtec, and I had maps from both Nokia and Garmin, so it was functional to me. I don't even think N95 was that great, but the information you gave just makes me more afraid about how Nokia will act with N900 customers... The main point of this discussion (on my opinion) is simply that N900 owners or potential buyers want to be sure they are not wasting their money on a short-life device.

And like you said, developers should be concerned as well, since they would not just lost their money to buy a device, but time and investments too.
