My N900 is a non-US model (from the Developer Device Program) and is running the global firmware. Its box does display the "This is an Ovi device." text and does not include the US in the list of approved countries for the FM radio. Still, nothing about My Nokia appeared during the OTA upgrade and no text message was sent.

I can't see Nokia using the GPS to make that choice, so it seems my AT&T SIM was the deciding factor, much as it is for Nokia Messaging.
