I doubt it... I also doubt they will subsidize the phone. As the good Doctor was 'splain'n today at the Maemo Summit (or at least my interpretation of his remarks), Open Source is all about services.

Nokia did their part in providing the hardware that can only run at full tilt on T-Mo's network in North America. It sounds like T-Mo is doing their part in providing an all you can eat plan on that network for $50 a month.

Get the plan and get the best possible phone. Consume the hell out of the services.

Can a 3G iPhone use this plan?
I don't thin' so...

How much does it cost for a 3G iPhone data plan?
Now subtract $50 and multiply the difference by 24 (two year AT&T contract)...

My employer provides my service on a completely different network so the N900 was not for me...
However, If this $50 plan from T-Mo turns out to be true... My wife will jump ship from her provider and we will have a N900 in the house, woot woot.

Can you smell what Nokia's got cooking for the North American Market?
