danramos - i've had my n900 since november. to me, it was a great deal when i paid $500 for it. getting another one now for less than $200 is a steal to me. i do not feel abandoned by nokia. what, is my machine going to stop functioning just because it's not going to receive commercially supported meego? no! and getting a bunch more n900s out to users right now only encourages tablet development at nokia. so i'm going to get a second one (if they ever get them back in stock), and i'm advising my friends to do the same. hold the ad hominem, please.

Ad hominem or not, it's worth mentioning that giving them more cash promotes what they do, whether you dislike it or like it either way. Fairly said, that.

What's wrong with rebates? This seems like a nice offer for the new buyers.
I frankly just no longer trust Nokia or its partners to make good on promises.
