I already have a 3G contract with my N82 and it work fine with the N810.

I don't think anyone would have a problem with there being a 3G chip onboard (other than effect on batterylife and cost) provided it does not become the "only option". By which I mean the other options start getting neglected/under developed.

In fact, it would probably mean the PIM side of things getting a real push, so possibly even a good thing from that perspective.

I wanted the N8xx primarily for big screen and qwerty. I also like the idea of it being independant of all the contract obligations etc. and leaving me free to pick whichever phone with features combination I wish.

If I could get a Tablet with all the features of an N82 built in, I might be tempted (with BT headset). Especially if could play back the video it had just recorded

But then others would want a different set of features/pricepoint from their phone/internet tablet.

Same here. Wife just got an iPhone (tried to talk her out of it). Nice interface, though lacking in features. Anyway, first thing I did was say I'll bluetooth over some contacts and pics. Still not managed it...
