I registered here in the end of May last year after a round of rumours about the N900. There's probably more accurate data about the talk.maemo.org member count somewhere in the logs, but I vaguely recall it being around 21000 at some point. It's over 32000 now. I wonder what percentage of N900 owners registers here?

But the whole point of this thread is that - usually - Nokia doesn't publish such data for single models.

I just visited the online shop of several national Nokia websites. In shops showing a "top sellers" list, N900 is among the best selling models in many countries.
These are my findings:
Country - Place
Italy - 1st
UK - 1st
France - 1st
Netherlands - 1st
Poland - 1st
Sweden - 1st
USA - 3rd
Germany - not in the top 3
Spain - not in the top 5

Well it is highest ranked on Amazons list of selling cell phones at the moment. That will say sin subsidize.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers...pd_dp_ts_cps_1
I don't know what that means since I guess that most users buy their phones with a service...

In relation to that the numbers discussed here for the N900 look very small!
also, the article doesn't say if those numbers are for the first iPhone, or all 3 combined.

This german website says that 43 Million iPhones were sold since mid 2007...
Break it down to round about 1.4 Mill. per month...

Nokia competes with the iPhone with their S60 models, and if my last numbers are correct, they're still far ahead with Symbian.
What's surprising for me, though, is how almost mainstream the N900 seems to be in spite of its limited phone functionality and high price. Yes, I would have expected it to sell better than previous tablets. I would not have expected it to find it, say, among the 10 most popular Nokia handsets @ flickr.
