Cradles are OK, but you can make a sideways-docking dock that'll work fine... And that'll be more amenable to picking up the tablet and working with it.

Oh, and General: don't forget the USB port does get in the way of the stand... but it could be a lot worse; I think I recall someone suggesting moving the headphone and/or USB to the left end.

I know they had to shrink things on the N810, but if you only had to fit in the N800's form factor, you could put in a micro B, and notch the kickstand. And a dust-cover, I guess...

No, maybe it's not that bad after all.
