Nokia ovi store and non-nokia phones(I8910)

Will the ovi store be available for non nokia phones?

I'm guessing that the answer is no. Which normally wouldn't concern me THAT much. But will developers keep making apps available through normal channels?

If not it doesn't bode well for samsungs s60 phones. At least I can't see my self buying one. Even though I really am drooling over the Omnia HD.

For me atm It's either the n97 or the i8910

Ovi will support all s60 phones including those from Samsung and LG. Aside from this Samsung is launching it's own app store on much the same lines as ovi. Given as they're currently number 2 in the market and by far fastest growing I can't see any problem there
