and how many downloads do you do each time you reflash ?

So the 200k figure is highly inflated.
Of course this applies if the 200k number is correct

Any idea if N9 supports for themes and wallpapers (not just in lock screen) ?
Consistently changing the look of the whole device with all its applications (these days, GUIs are not just a collection of a few limited building blocks anymore), will be a lot of effort of course. On the upside, this also means that your possibilities for deep customisation are vastly increased, with application specific customisations and all.
You also have a lot more control over the actual layout of elements (if you want to go there) than you did with Fremantle customisation.
I would not count much on Symbian apps either. They aren't exactly spilling over to N900 despite Qt allready allowing that. Symbian is dying and most developers will be moving to something that has future.
