The idea is extremely simple, but extremely powerful. The unit has standardized holes/clips/slots that external add-on hardware could be attached to. These attachments would have their own power supplies (if necessary), and would interface directly with the device (via downloadable applications) to extend the functions of the tablet and add personal customization.

Here are some more ideas for N900 add-on devices.

1) Computer 'book' cover. A leather bound holder the size of a large novel, that can mount an N810, external keyboard (like a mini laptop), and have storage for headphones, bluetooth headset, etc.
2) Wireless powercast battery attachment for effortless automatic in-home/in-car/in-cafe/in-office/ etc charging.
3) GSM/3G attachment for accessing cellular networks
4) 'survival' attachment, with solar panel, water-proof case, and light, etc, for off-road adventure.
5) scanner attachment, for scanning papers. The software would automatically stitch the resultant images together.
6) Walky-Talky attachment, for direct radio communication.

I hope Nokia is listening! It would *only* require cleverly positioned clips/slots/holes on the N900 to make this possible!
