windows phone 7 market share 2Q 2011:

germany: 7.1%
US: 2.1%
Other countries <1.7%

maybe they should sell wp7 only in germany. On the other hand the germans were always loyal nokia customers so meego would probably sell good there as well.

P.S. I'm one pissed off citizen of the USA.
not very many, i looked at all the names and most sounded european... I'd estimate 10-20 tops out of the 250
(i'm including canada)

If I see someone walking around with a piece-of-sh*t Sea Ray before I have an n9, my head might come right off my neck. But don't worry, I'll try to make sure somebody gets it on video.

What does tethering have to do with having a smart phone? The Nokia 6600 had GPRS tethering over bluetooth, and virtually any Nokia feature phone still has that feature ...

On amazon.de you can preorder the device (only 16GB black or blue) for 619 Euro, but the date of release is unknown. First they say it comes from Nokia.de, but now they've changed in "nokia.at", so it comes from the neighboring country.

So it seems be true, that it will not be officially released in Germany.

mmmmm. There's that word "contract" again.
Still haven't seen anyone produce evidence of this contract yet.

Or do i need to put my tin foil hat on for that?

If Alien Dalvik can be made available for the N9 that should help overcome any lingering buyer reticence with regard to "Gr[ea]y market" imports into the US... anyone have news on Alien Dalvik, or is it just vapourware?

I can hear him now..."Well, we built a really nice MeeGo phone but it failed miserably to generate buzz and sales. Obviously no one cares about MeeGo."

IOW Elop is only releasing the N9 to build justificatiion to abandon MeeGo entirely. An intentional fail inspite of nice hardware and a great OS. Because MeeGo - aka Linux - is a mortal enemy to Elop, Ballmer, M$ - and of course WP7.
The N9 is released in all parts of the world where Nokia is large. You know that it's only a couple of months since Symbian was the largest smartphone OS, by far. Still they were nowhere to be seen in the US. The world hasnt really changed all that much since then, only Android becoming popular world wide, thanks to Samsung.

People like you make me glad the N9 wont be seen in the US.
