Price now at $ $582.99 via Amazon only (look here). On the other hand, the Nokia Preorder store claims availability for End October, can this taken seriously after all announcements? (I guess they wanna challenge the Droid release?)

Amazon UK apparently no longer sell the n900... but my order for one appears unchanged. I think it may have fallen through a hole in the space-time continuum.

Sure. Don't get me wrong, I'm by no means saying that there aren't, but the vast majority of people I know seem to be under the mistaken impression that any contract saves them money, which is a load of crap. The majority of them *don't* unless you manage to find some kind of special deal. Kind of to be expected, given that the phone company expects to - and will - make money off you, phone inclusive or exclusive.
I'm personally not in the market for a contract, but the above isn't the only reason why: my expenses are paid by my employer, so I've no need for one.

More likely it's because it's closer to Christmas (the winter holiday shopping season). Same reason why most major videogames are released around this time. For example (Modern Warfare 2, Bioshock 2, etc..)
