Hi, I can be a second source reporting N900 availability in Finland. I work for a home electronics store here and we've had problems in availability since launch.
On initial launch we had less than a hundred phones throughout out organization, including sim-locked and sim-free devices. Well in reality none of them were truly sim-locked, but we had a different saldo for selling them with and without a contract.
The phones from the initial launch were sold right away and many went to pre-orderers. Ever since we've had around 20 phones trickle in every 2 months for our entire organisation, and every time we've sold them out within a week, locked or unlocked! People buying a locked phone in Finland is relatively uncommon seeing as the clear majority of phones are sold without a contract.
This kind of pattern for availability isn't strikingly different for any phone that isn't expected to sell huge amounts. We have a lot of devices that have worse availability, because they fall at a given time into an unattractive price category.
So to summarize: from personal experience as a person working in sales the N900 doesn't seem "discontinued" and not even particularly "unavailabe".
