Dell slate (secret) thin five-inch Android device with a dialer
 
Engadget is running a story about a Dell Phone? (have a SIM slot) 5" tablet. The screen size is great for me.

You can see the pictures of the devices at:

Maybe about the size of the n800?

I love that screen. This is moving right to the top of my "got to have it" list. I just hope that an N910 is announced in the next couple of months with a big screen like the Dell.

Yeah. Just imagine if Nokia had stuck with their prior path or had something to show at CES. This kind of buzz would have been their buzz for the Maemo platform.

Such a waste of potential. This product is what I've been looking for - given that there is a decent forward facing camera.

Depends if you are talking pocketable tablets versus the big slate kind. I'm assuming pocketable. Interesting, dunno how it would fit in my pocket though. N800's screen was 4 inches + bezel bulk, this looks like 5 inch + bezel bulk. But if it's same width as the N800 I could see this as a possible tablet for those who wanted Nokia to put one out with a big screen (if they don't care if it doesn't run Maemo)

Sigh. Sometimes I get the feeling we are unheard and unloved...
