That one looks very interesting. The video proved it wasn't vapourware for sure..

The user interface looked quite good.

The onscreen keyboard was substandard though, it only had letters on it and none of the really important keys (/\;| and so on), and no numerical keypad. That's what I like with the N800 onscreen keyboard compared to any of the others I've used - it's got the numerics right there (and other keys) with no need to hit an 'alt' or 'num' key.

The 2GB SSD looks like a design mistake to me. 2GB won't take you anywhere. They should have gone for an internal SD slot instead, it would have meant instant large-size internal flash for less cost, and given you flexibility.

I realized something while watching the video.. they way he held it looked clumsy to me (like he could drop it unless he wasn't careful). I'm so used to use the N800 stand to secure my grip that I can't imagine just holding it at the edge alone anymore.

But it looked like they've got a lot of things right with that machine.
