It is a tablet. Days of mids and 5 inch tablets are pretty much over i think. It is either handheld (3.2-4 inch) or a tablet 8-10 inch. I don't think anything over 4 inch is really pocketable. Well okay HD2 sized phone is in the limits :D

Would it be possible to use the current MeeGo for ARM build with this UI and boot it up on the N900?
No it is not only you... MeeGo is plain awesomeness!:D

I'm speechless. Meego looks AWESOME! I hope they get the tablet version out by the end of the year.

THat product they were demoing isn't scheduled till fall 2011? That's wayyy to far out and will be behind the competition by then.

Simply wow! And this is just pre-alpha. Can't wait enough for a 10+ inch tablet. I hope there will be devices with this OS with Pixel Qi screen technology.

Really impressed with fluidity, sensitivity to touch (not your typical resistive), cleaness and especially after that last MeeGo (for netbooks) demo which brought nothing new to the table.
Perhaps MeeGo does have tricks in its sleeve.
And I thought that last demo was the final product, so I started thinking it should've been Nokia-Intel-Ubuntu trio. Actually Nokia is the odd one out, another company like Asus or Nvidia would've made more sense. If Google decided to cancel Chrome and transfer those efforts to MeeGo I think they could wipe Apple and Microsoft to the floor.

Great job for the meego project...windows tablets are looking bloated, and android tablets look like they're meant to be in PMP's not tablets.

Way to steal the show!!! hopefully the handset UX carries on the momentum

Wow. iPad has a challenger ahead there. I'll certainly buy one of these babies!

My N800 is pocketable. In cold months I keep it in pockets of trousers or jackets, in summer I put it in backpack or waist bag. It also fits in any car glove compartment or suits internal pocket.

Do these things with 8-10" monsters. With them I have to say goodbye to convergence dreams. Not only I don't have tablet with me anywhere, it also means I need separate camera.

5" (1024x600) phone/tablet with N8 camera for me would be ultimate electronic device.

With Meego being open (similar to Android) as in installing on numerous platforms. I'm sure one company will make a 4-5 inch tablet. That is unless Android scoops up all the manufacturers.

So will the tablets run on chrome or firefox?
