In fact, if operators see that N-Series sells EVEN without any operator subsidies, they may want to take them into their lineup. Also, IF the retail push is ONLY for N-Series, that leaves a ton of feature/S40 phones and numbered S60 devices stil for the operators to grab. The "unlock" reference in the Jaiku feed is indeed interesting. However, it COULD also just be about the theme of "N95 is Open" (which I love btw: so IN YOUR FACE iPhone.. lol). I would not be suprised to see a US oriented Internet Tablet announced, likely the one that was listed on FCC. Btw, the N-Series retail page where I can insert a zip code to look for nearest retailers is either not working (the list below the zip code box does not get updated although the map does; it keeps showing the list for NYC stores), OR, there just isn't anything in the DC area...
