That's a poor analogy. A better one would be a car -- a car completely capable of doing everything an ordinary car can do -- that comes without turn signals or headlights. Having the manufacturer say, "Oh, we never intended that you should TURN, or drive at NIGHT," is just asinine, and is no excuse for such an obvious omission.

The n810 is MORE than capable of serving as a PIM (among its many other potential uses). It has, across the board, better hardware for that purpose than any of the current generation Palms. There is simply no excuse for it.
