[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Europe vs US discount codes?

[From: Marius Gedminas]

I noticed a surprise present in my inbox today.  Thank you!  I didn't
really expect it, given that my contributions for Maemo are a tiny patch
to Maemo Mapper, and some Debian packaged recompiled for armel.  Maybe
hosting the #maemo IRC logs archives helped. ;)

This page says:

    Are the codes attached to shops?

    Yes, there are codes for the European shop and codes for the US shop.

I live in Europe, but not in one of the countries that Nokia's online
webshop serves.  My coworker is traveling to the US this Friday.  Can he
use the discount code I received to buy a N800 in the US for me?

The email with the code didn't say anything about it being valid only in
Europe:

    IMPORTANT:
    This discount code can only be used to purchase one Nokia N800,
    through the online store in the countries where the Nokia N800 is sold.
    Currently these countries include: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland,
    France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden,
    Switzerland, United Kingdom and the United States.

As a result of these two conflicting pieces of information, I remain
somewhat confused.
