Indeed, which is why I mentioned their unlocked prices (the N900 is
free in the UK on contract, and that's cheaper than an iPhone. Do I
think the N900 will be a bigger success in the UK than the iPhone? No.
Do I think the N900 will be a bigger success in the UK than the N810?
Yes.)

You're making three dangerous assumptions here:
* That _everyone_ who would buy an iPhone would buy a cheaper device
based on price alone.
* That _everyone_ who would buy an N900 won't pay a bit more for it.
* That the N900 is intended to compete for the truly mainstream
market for high-end consumer mobile devices the iPhone is
currently dominating.
