Hopes of the Nokia N9 coming to the United States were crushed earlier today when Nokia released a sad statement. Don’t worry, though. We’ll have eBay to buy from sellers overseas. Full statement after the jump.

After the very positive reception to the launch of the Nokia N9, the product is now being rolled out in countries around the world. At this time we will not be making it available in the US. Nokia takes a market by market approach to product rollout, and each country makes its own decisions about which products to introduce from those available. Decisions are based on an assessment of existing and upcoming products that make up Nokia’s extensive product portfolio and the best way in which to address local market opportunities.
