It probably makes sense for them to have the stock already, otherwise if Nokia is holding onto them and needs to ship it all out before it starts selling that's going cause a bottleneck. What they're probably doing is either..

a) ironing out the last major bugs or getting last minute tweaks in
b) trying to ship enough stock everywhere

Logistics does sound a very plausible reason, I suppose it might also have something to do with OVI sync or OVI store?

That would make sense since not everyone knows about Extras so the worst thing possible for Nokia would a release of the n900 and then have everyone rag on it about lack of applications (which for anyone in the community there's tons and tons) but for anyone new to Maemo there's less than 25..

i don't know if anyone would appreciate this info but i thought i would throw it out there!
thanks for the info

Except that really doesn't fit with nokia's statement that they're ironing out some of the 'wish-list' from the 300. Unless the very first thing you do with n900 is update the firmware, this firmware will not be particularly new.

It's possible of course.

Which Amazon ar you talking about? UK? US? EU?

There is no amazon EU - and since when has the UK dropped out of it (well, except for your strange currency, but ...)

I guess it depends where the now remaining issues are. That is within the N900 or between either Extras or OVI and the N900...??

Where did you get this number? It’s actually 45 in maemo.org
I guess that ovi will add some more.

I just got the # from the last time I read the thread about applications, of course it's changed by now as more applications are being tested and moved into non-beta status. =P
