I think we're missing a HUGE point here: Nokia designed the iT as a mobile Internet device, not a sub-notebook, not a UMPC and certainly not a notebook replacement. They designed and optimized the UI and performance and the hardware for the following purposes: 1. Web browsing - hence microB, with Flash support for a really decent browsing experience for over 95% of the sites out there today. 2. Email - the built-in app has some issues, but modest should sort that out once the good General is done with it. In the meantime, I've got Gmail in all its AJAX glory. No complaints here. 3. Online media playback - internet radio, podcasts, last.fm. I couldn't ask for more. Except maybe less packet loss from my office LAN, but that's not Nokia's fault. Vagalume could do with a larger buffer though... 4. Offline media playback - it plays most of the file formats that I use. I encoded a nice bunch of clips (Jeff Dunham's Achmed the Dead Terrorist clips), anime series (Bleach / Initial D) and movies (Independence Day). I have over 15 albums of my favourite music, and Canola 2 plays them back with style 5. Internet Communications - VoIP and IM. Skype, Gizmo and the built-in apps get the job done well. Works as promised. Nokia has never marketed the iT as anything else, and certainly never meant for it to be used for document generation and all the resource-hungry purposes that so many people are trying to get working on the device. One does not buy an Armani suit and then try to use it for skydiving or ice hockey, and then go around complaining that it rips too easily and stains don't come off it, and that it's too expensive for what it is. Remember the iT for what it was built for. If it does anything beyond what it is touted to do, that's a bonus. If it doesn't, then someone bought the wrong device The N8x0 is an Internet tablet. That what it was built for
