4.95 € with contract or contract prolongation at T-Mobile D. Just like any other highend Android or iOS phone. But despite of that usual price, I have not seen any people using Lumia in Germany.
possibly company phones that now got replaced by ANDRoid or iPotatos?

But at least they buy the Apple stuff in large quantities. Can't say the same for the Nokia fanatics. They buy one, declare it the best, never buy anything else...
N900 forever!

We had all kinds of data packages, 3G and everything —*yet the phones were absolutely *horrible* at using it. The whole industry was ripe for disruption, which Apple did very effectively.
I blame the management.
Management should have funded it. Fire the management. Fire the board of directors.
On your point about the N900 crowd disagreeing with my statement of the N9 being best, I know what you mean. I disagree with it, but I know many n900 fans (our startup's office is a couple of blocks away from the Nokia Research Centre, where all the Maemo stuff was done). To me the n900 showed, again, loads of promise. It was much, much better than the disgustingly bad n97 — yet was never pitched as an alternative to it. But it was still a bit klunky and lacked the fluidity of the Swipe.
An n900 would never tempt me away from the iPhone, but the N9 can. The N9 is one of the most tragic devices ever, really.

Funny thing in all this is, the Microsoft deal came to practice the moment everything Nokia was ready for primetime.
Elop, you deserve a pat on your back. Your disbelief of having an iphone competitor turned out to be a potential best seller.

S60v5 lacked RAM and a GPU and so did the FP2 devices. If Nokia was smart and added RAM and GPUs, even N-Gage would've still been alive. I love the app and its store. Job done well with no support whatsoever.

Nokia should fire Elop and hire Julian Fourgeaud.
