indications are that the list found on the Nokia Check N9 Availability page only indicates availability in Nokia Store.

The N810 launched in November 2007. Even if the N9 becomes available as early as September that's still 3 years 10 months.
And they didn't even release anything inbetween. Just sayin'.

3y2m and 3y10m are pretty much the same amount of time, no matter the quality of communication.

Not sure if this has been answered, but couldn't find the answer, does the N9 also have a Micro SD card slot for memory cards?

Google don't make devices, didn't have an existing platform and community bleeding users and developers in the meantime, and hadn't announced anything and left the whole world waiting (the Android platform itself was only unveiled publicly in November 2007, while Nokia has been talking in concrete terms about Harmattan since May 2008). Just sayin'.
I also wonder what would be easier to hack on top of a suitable modern cellphone if you had plenty of time to do it - Hildon 1.x or Android 1.5? I would guess Hildon 1.x because the sources and dev tools are openly available. But please correct me if I am wrong, I am just wondering here.

DLNA in this context is simply being able to stream compressed data from N9 to DMP (i.e. TV set). It does not matter what resolution of the video file is there as all N9 would do in such case is only give out the stream, no decoding is happening on N9 side. Think about it as if N9 was a small http server and your TV was a "browser".
Regarding HDMI/MHL -- there is none and will not be. Sorry, too late.
same goes for flash ****it it should simply die.
