I still own a Nokia n810 which is in good condition. That said I want to keep in good condition so I don't really use it heavily and the performance is understandably low. I use it from time to time and show it to fascinated people but as an everyday device it is simply not adequate and fails at many tasks, which is to be expected given the age. Very few Linux tablets actually exist especially ones with keyboards. If I need a keyboard I can get an attachment keyboard or Bluetooth and if I need Linux I can probably install it or dual boot given newer atoms use 64 bit oses and efis and given that Windows tablets are x86 based. So yes I will use a Windows tablet in public.
