I thought the Nokia n900 had been out in the US so wouldn't there be more applications by now?

Those 12 applications are the ones that have made it through the (much more) rigorous testing process.

There are many more application in testing and almost ready for production, and still more being developed but not yet ready for testing.

Until recently there weren't many testers to actually try out applications and allow them to be promoted. Things should speed up now that many people have devices in their hands.

I need a real device for two different projects, interacting with two different pieces of hardware.

Don't forget a large part of the legacy Maemo apps will work on the N900. People will think these 12 apps are the only ones, but that's not the case. Those 12 are just for Maemo 5 only. The others work as well, though.

for those interested in the apps, the ovi store has finally opened with 1 item right now... but days before when I tried to log on it said that there are some errors. Sign of phones shipping?
