All the early adopters who have been waiting, waiting, waiting for their fix since.....well, too long. THATS WHO! :D

They don't stop you; I'm not sure if it's a technical TOS violation or not, but a number of people do it. SERO (yeah, it's now become Sprint Everything, and like double the price, but basically the same) forbids it, but you can still get by with it on many phones with additional software.

IMHO, it could be the same size as the N800 and work well as both. :p
But I expect I'm one of the less fashion-conscious; being seen in public with a device the size of a small laptop held up to my ear wouldn't bother me. (The ergonomics of using an Eee as a phone, however, would bother me; the N800's cool ergonomically, though.)

I actually agree, Benson. The tablets make really good desk phone replacements, too. ;)

i would be more worried about my wrist and arm for holding onto the bulk of the tablet for any extended call.

still, i have a bluetooth handsfree, so...

but then it seems its even less fashionable to use those (maybe unless your using a jawbone or that apple one, two guesses why)...

indeed, i suspect that we will see more and more cross-compilable apps.

hell, it may even happen that nokia uses QT to make available phone tools on linux...

I don't want phone capabilities in tablets. Why?

- price
- size; IT is too big to make good phone; I much prefer having two devices than one bulky.

Like Trolltech's Greenphone based on Qtopia? Trolltech has shifted development of Qtopia to Neo FreeRunner.

BTW, the toolkit is called Qt; not QT.

proper capitalization was never one of my strong points ;)
