Hope this helps

Recently some hard-to-distinguish (before You have it in your hand, actually) fake N900's appeared. Of course, they're not powered by Maemo, and resemble real N900 only visually.

whats up with the $200 new n900s on ebay from hong kong
legit or knockoff?
I got my first N900 a little over a month ago. Unfortunately, half of that time it has had a broken LCD. I have ordered two more new (hopefully) N900s since. Tracking these things down is really quite a chore.
Needless to say, if this is your first N900 and you are affiliated with IT you will really enjoy it.
Good luck,
Abe

I took a gamble and ordered a "new" N900 for $220 from a Chinese seller. I'll be happy to report how it turns out here. The feedback for the seller was extremely positive, so here's hoping!

I just bought the RIM BB PlayBook for $200 (in Sydney it holds same price, never got fire sale).
You guys think I should hold on to it?

At the very least you should ask to see a screenshot before ordering, to see if it's really Maemo or some knock-off.

And most importantly, more than ready to contest if it's an outright scam.
