Possibly, but this is still mostly a hardware issue. Just target your videos for the device and everything will run fine.

It's a great app it just needs major refinement.
You've got this issue very confused. nano is a unix text editor that's been around for a lot longer than the tablets, and is based on pico (another editor) which has been around even longer. They are both very mature and functional applications with few bugs and finalized feature-sets.

The issues you describe have nothing to do with nano and everything to do with Nokia's piss-poor xterm implementation. My recommendation to you until Nokia gets their heads out of their asses and fixes maemo's xterm is either to learn vi or get yourself a bluetooth keyboard (you can get around the vkb-close-refresh by using the thumbboard with the center-button on the d-pad, too).

There's a decent solution to this issue discussed over in bug #2423.
