Ports still require development time. And so does setting up customer support. I'm actually amazed at Rovio's Angry Birds. I wonder how similar the code base or at least the level base is to the iPhone version.

It would be interesting to know how much manpower was needed to port angry birds to N900, and why rovio havent done anymore games apart from AB and Bounce... I preume they didnt deem it financially viable...

Well Bounce was a tech demo (probably paid for by Nokia). Which is why you don't see any more levels. So AB is probably their only port. And they are doing new levels so I think someone must think it's financially viable.
