May be a Donation drive for anyone with "Retired" or broken n900s could help with the cause? It would help to minimise the overall cost if we could gather a parts pool. (I would be happy to donate my spare unit)
We don't know of secret stocks. So yes, in the end it's just ebay et al.
Sure we happily will collect donations of spare / defect N900, even parts. But till now most of the parts are still easily available on free market - which is where this project came from.
