Nope. The fundamental design behind the N900 (and the earlier "Internet Tablet" series from Nokia) was to, more or less, deliver the functionality of a desktop computer in your pocket -- but it was Steve Jobs' vision of a pocketable multimedia device that really caught fire in the marketplace. Therefore, every manufacturer now follows Jobs -- you can choose Apple's iPhone, Google's iPhone, or Microsoft's iPhone. All of them toys that allow you to play games and watch videos very well. None of them tools that allow you to leave your laptop behind. (I don't think any of them are even as good as the old PDAs.) Who knows when (or if) something like the N900 will ever appear again...
