Hence my quoted question in the OP...

As reported, the rules may not require that the app be an original product, free of license restrictions, or made available for consumption in any way shape or form... If this is the case then I don't know what the point of this whole "competition" thing was...

It is Nokia's responsibility to its stock holders to expect a reasonable return on the money it spends. How would they explain this?

There must be an Ambiguity Division at Nokia. If there is, then the N900 would be its flagship model.
