Btw if someone made light of the above post I think it would shift a lot more of the tablets! Especially as you can add BT or USB keyboards to the n810 for remote input.

"Apple previews iPhone OS 3.0, adds copy and paste, ..."

see http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/a...iphone-os-3-0/

Again ... WOW

Auto-login for WiFi hotspots...?

MMS ? Low expectations are the key to success.

Anyway, the hotspot auto-login is I believe something different - finding and logging in on previously unknown open hotspots. Correct me if I'm wrong. Maemo doesn't do this either by default, but I don't mind as do think it's a bit reckless (do you really want to expose your tablet to an unknown network and trust it your internet traffic without even as much as clicking an OK button ?).

that could be reading to much into a single line on engadget.

maemo do have auto-login, on saved networks. that is, as long as your not using offline mode on diablo (one thing i would love to see nokia fix before abandoning the existing tablets for the new breed and fremantle).

Wow, that is nice. Apple just demolished more than half of the iPhone's problems, and the touch now has freaking bluetooth! Good job Apple, maybe I will buy an iPhone for college...

Re: IPhone: *Thumbs up* for Apple
 
Yes. My pet bug with that one is the IM going online after discovering a saved connection even when you set availability to offline. Ugh. Had to switch to pidgin for that single reason :(

Issue with copy/paste was that the apps run in sandboxes.

Easy WiFi/Devicescape.

While some of these features can be considered basic, Maemo 5 will also get some features which can be considered basic. One thing is sure: users anticipate these features.

Exactly. I've iphoned colleagues who laugh to my E71 and N810 hardware keyboards stating that "hardware keyboards are past, and will disappear in the near future".
Now, give them an external BT keyboard and they'll use it only in the secret area of their bathrooms.
