Okay. Received a lot of input on this subject.
Well here is the final word on this subject. Hopefully those dudes that have been attempting to hijack this thread with nonsense about a silly device that only works in the clouds are gone to bed now :
1. Lots of smart people that visit this forum. Lots of idiots come here also and they reared their heads in this thread quite often.
2. The N8XX is an awesome little linux machine and thats all it ever will be unless somebody wise's up at Nokia.
3. The N8XX is by no means a true "convergence" device that allows the user to carry just one device that converges at lot of functions inside one small package.
4. The N8XX, with reports that only 700K units being sold, will be discontinued soon since no company, even powerful Nokia, can continue spending money on what people in this forum have called "an R & D" project.
5. Desktop linux apps such a word processors are not practical on the N8XX.
6. Symbian, while not being a full OS like linux, is quite capable of handling "convergence" type tasks.
7. The Nokia N95 8G is the "perfect" convergence device following short of things the N8XX can do however excelling many, many, more areas the N8XX can never hope to do.
8. Last and finally, if 3G phone capability is added and built into the N8XX and an even slightly better camera (3-5mg) is added, the N8XX will take over not just this planet but could rule the entire universe. In the absence of these things the Nokia N95 8G kills the N8XX insofar as convergence is concerned.
So there you have it folks.
The last and final word on this matter.
Thanks for offering your valuable feedback and making this a really, really hot thread.
And please, no flaming. I am only the messenger.
